Brrr, it appears that winter has arrived… It’s cold and grey here in Berlin this morning. A perfect moment for blogging about a “travel-fit” stick for the next bass fishing trip to Spain, isn’t it?
Already a few months back I stumbled upon Major Craft’s DC-644M for the first time and was impressed by the concept behind this eye-catching piece of craftsmanship.
The 4 piece casting stick, listed in MC’s bass fishing game series, features the unique and exotic flavour one would expect from a Japanese rod manufacturer and is still available at an affordable and reasonable price. Rated with a 8.92 score by the TackleTour staff and honoured with the the “Best Value Award”, the lightweight and highly functional rod easily found it’s way to my must-have list.
The detailed review helped sweeping away first doubts about the action of a multi-piece stick and the positive reactions about Sa KU RA’s “Good Sensitivity” and used “Quality Components” led to another purchase from overseas (Thanks Tsuyoshi).

I broke the first piece of this rod. Can I get a replacement on that particular piece?

actually this rod ( DC-644M) is made from where?….because there is no mention in the rod stick.
