I don't know how good of rod's USA Custom makes and I don't have any personal experience with Ardent Reels, but you cannot tell me that there would be a cooler looking combination than this! I would like to get one just to try out but Ardent only makes RH reels.. does anybody know the reason for them only making reels for righties?

When Bantum1, the Shimano rep was asked that question about some of their reels, his response was the market wasn't big enough to justify the cost of manufacturing LH reels in all models. I would guess that is the case with Ardent as well.

The selection of LH reels is getting better, but still limited for those of us who use the correct hand to reel with. :)

The problem with those reels, is that they are really wide on each side of the reel post.

To me anyway, that makes for a really uncomfortable feeling reel.

The rods are reasonably priced at $99-109. I am contemplating getting one to check it out. The reel, I can't find for sale anywhere. All I'm finding are the news releases. They may not be available yet. Another option for camoflauge rods is Castaway, they have two versions with a few more paterns $119 and $299
