I forget if they were a Big 5 exclusive. But they are made overseas and sold as a private label rod for Avet. Nothing special to em. Great beater rod or to loan out. Like with any rod it should last you awhile with a good freshwater rinse and towel dry after each trip. Big 5 has a decent return policy from my experience. Nothing much to lose at $40.

I don't know if they are still going but big 5 had a sale on shimano voltaeus rods. I picked one up for 22 bucks, normally 60.

Remember reading about this on BD. I think Avet just whored their name out to some cheap china manufacturing deal. $40 bucks is $40 bucks though. Give it a nice bendo test in the store
