About Us
Founded in 2010 by Trevor & Sonia Fitzgerald, Fitzgerald Rods quickly became the preferred rod for guys frogging and flipping. Fitzgerald Rods became the brand that you used if you needed a rod that could with stand heavy duty use and abuse. The fact that Trevor Fitzgerald won the Bassmaster Open on Lake Seminole in 2010 and Rich Howes won the Bassmaster Open in 2013 on Lake Toho both while using the flipping technique proved that The Fitzgerald Brand was more than just another rod offered on the market.
In 2014 Fitzgerald Fishing, LLC was born and that is when things really got serious for The Fitzgerald brand. Soon after that Bryan Thrift joined The Fitzgerald Team and The Bryan Thrift Signature Series of rods started to come to life. After months of designing and testing The Thrift Series was perfected and brought to market for consumers to purchase. Unlike many signature series rods from other brands these are the actual rods that Bryan Thrift uses while competing at the highest level of bass fishing. Around that same time frame the Titan HD Series hit the market and still to this day is a standalone flipping and pitching rod with nothing else like it on the market. It is the rod that Bassmaster Pros and MLF Pros sponsored by other rod companies secretly use while flipping and pitching.
In 2015 Fitzgerald Fishing, LLC teamed up with Aqua Dream Living and Captain Mike Hakala to design and build The Aqua Dream Series of rods. This kick started The Fitzgerald brand into the saltwater market. ‘Fun fact’ Every single Fitzgerald Rod is built with saltwater grade components. Since then Fitzgerald Fishing has introduced another inshore series The AquaFin Series along with several offshore rods in both The Stunner HD and The Stunner X Series. The Fitzgerald brand now has a serious foothold in the saltwater market with amazing offerings that you will not find from other brands.
Currently Fitzgerald Fishing, LLC not only offers high quality professionally designed rods, but we also offer the best braided line on the market, high quality weigh in bags, jigs, specially treated tungsten weights, fishing accessories, hats and shirts. The sky is the limit in regard to what we can do and plan to do. Now that Fitzgerald Fishing, LLC is firmly seated in the fishing industry keep an eye out for big things to come!
Tight Lines,
The Fitzgerald Family
