Aaron Martens Edge Rods 2024
bass1980 reply :
For those of you who repeatedly say they could care less on aesthetics of fishing gears as long as it performs this will put your beliefs to the test 
As some of you know Aaron Martens left Megabass to sign with Enigma Fishing. With Martens expertise in rods I believe these will be good rods. The colors are....interesting. Thought?

Sorry, I wasn't calling you out. Just curious. I have a NFC blank, still in the tube, waiting for time to build a new rod. I've been interested in NFC ever since hearing that THE MAN was back in the business.

rippin-lips reply :
I won't vote them out because of color but the reel seat makes it a no deal for me. Being able to design his own line of rods was just a money making decision. That's my thoughts anyhow.
EmersonFish reply :
I know aesthetics are not supposed to matter, but when I look at those aesthetic choices, I get the impression of a rod that they are in a rush to get to market. At the very least, that would make me hesitant to be among the first to take the plunge and invest in one. A lot remains to seen, of course. Too early in the process to be too critical. I look forward to getting the rods in my hands.
lmbfisherman reply :
For the price I just saw it for too. I'll pass.

I think aesthetics do matter. Why should you are drop your hard-earned cash on something you aren't going to like looking at? Especially since the price range is so competitive, with many alternatives that have the aesthetics and performance.
bass1980 reply :
Everyone has to eat and this is a deal he can't pass up. I'm sure money wise Megabass can't even come close to this offer. It's just really shocking that with him using MB rods for so long when it's his time to have total control he comes out with something so generic looking. I wish him the best though.

BTW rods will sell for $169.99

Delaware Valley Tackle reply :
The microwave guide system is a nice feature on spinning rods and perform exceptionally well. I'm not sold the casting setup. They won't hurt anything but the claims are bit of a reach imo. The blanks are likely a typical intermediate modulus from one of the common sources. Not a bad thing, but nothing innovative either. Once someone gets to handle one we'll know more. Aesthetically, ummmm to each his own. No worse than the orange carrot sticks or hideous yellow skeet rods. The name, what's in a name? The Enigma & Aaron's references will likely become more common than the Edge.
SenkoGuru reply :
Is Enigma a Bass Pro Shops brand? I need to go look them up because I do not know this company but it seems like I remember seeing a Enigma reel at BPS. I mean after all it isn't like I already fish a solid White fishing rod any way............ 
mjseverson24 reply :
I would be willing to give them a try, A-Mart is one heck of a fisherman, if he puts his name on it, I would expect a pretty decent stick... I hope they are good enough to challenge some of the rods in the 200-250 range causing those companies to be more competetive...

SenkoGuru reply :
From their website....
"Enigma Fishing was born in the primordial swamps of Central Florida — part passion, part business and all bass fishing. Enigma believes there are four kinds of fish: bass, baitfish (shad, rainbow trout, etc.), trash fish and the kinds you eat (Mmmmm!). We stand for quality, truth, justice and bass big enough to startle the catatonic. Some will tell you that you can become addicted to bass fishing — that it’s a disease. At Enigma, we know that the poison’s the cure, and we want all the poison we can get. To that end, we are absolutely committed to making the finest bass fishing products you can buy anywhere and at any price. The best fishing tools don’t have to be the most expensive; they just have to be the best. Today we make rods, and we’ll be adding lots more basstastic stuff soon — line, sinkers, lures and more. If you’re not excited, you should be. Enigma’s going to change the way you fish. Just follow the directions on our products: Cast. Catch. Repeat."

Money. I'm sure the guy has bills. He was offered something he can't refuse.

Can't fault him for leaving. Pro Bass fishing isn't cheap. Megabass can't match it I'm sure.

Who knows, it may be a very good rod.. But man, they gotta change the appearance!

Well, At least Tackletour will be happy in their review. The rod comes with a rod sleeve. I always wondered why they knocked off points for a rod sleeve

Ya, I'm not knocking it before I try it just because of the appearance. Could be a good rod. But they'd be much better IMHO to at least go with an unpainted blank, ugh.On 2/4/2015 at 3:53 AM, Alonerankin2 said:Who knows, it may be a very good rod.. But man, they gotta change the appearance!

Awesome Senko Guru
BassCats reply :
He was criticized for using gear that is out of the price range of the everyday angler. Now he is helping a new company get off the ground and designing rods for them. He is very knit Picky so I assume that he might know a thing or two about rods. It was the goal to keep it affordable, yet have as much as possible. I think this is a positive step for him and for the everyday angler.
Only a few of you on this forum could afford the megabass rods and reels he was using. The rest of us just looked on in awe. Now we can afford what he is using and it makes getting to the public that much easier.

Beat me to the Carrot Sticks and Skeets. I also think the white Duckett microguide rods are pretty hideous looking. To each his own indeed. The proof is definitely in the pudding as they say.

EmersonFish reply :
Aesthetics definitely impact my buying habits, and I think they impact the buying habits of a lot of other people more than they are willing to admit. It has also seemed to me that rod lines that have chosen to go with the more unusual color schemes have been rods that didn't turn out all that great, which makes you wonder if they are trying to stand out by looking different because they can't do so with quality. That's why this is risky for Enigma. I know they are trying to make an impression, but Carrot Stix, Wright & McGill and a few others should make them think twice about trying to stand out too much. With all of the buzz about Aaron Martens leaving Megabass, I'm not sure they had to get too wild to get people's attention.On 2/4/2015 at 2:18 AM, IAY said:I think aesthetics do matter.

If it is a Bushido blank, which it appears to be by the description, then it is an import.
The Next KVD reply :
If Aaron continues to do well in tournaments with these rods I guess it would solidify that one does not need the most expensive stuff to do well. Going from $400-800 rods to $170 rods should be more than enough proof. But of course we all know that money can't buy skill already. Hope the best for Aaron but I'm not likely to buy one. Pick one up at a store to feel around, yes, but I hate that reel seat with a passion.

I agree. It feels very weird for Aaron to go from Megabass, which has some of the best form and function, to coming up with these colors. I think the grips of the spinning rod looks pretty good, but Enigma fishing might had too much hand into the blank's colors. :/

bass1980 reply :
Well since I started this I'll give my opinion on it. First of all Aaron Martens is my favorite pro fisherman since I have been finesse fishing lately and have been watching a lot of his videos and tips. I understand the move since professional fishing cost $100,000 a year. I don't have numbers but I doubt Megabass invest in pro fishing as much as Quantum, Strike King, Yamaha, or Nitro. I'm sure Enigma Fishing offered him a deal he could not pass up.
With that said, I'm am surprise with this whole line of rods. He has been with Megabass for 17 years I think. Whether you think their rods are worth the price one thing you cannot deny is that their products are aesthetically as good as it gets. Everything just compliments each other with colors, components, and style. When I saw the new Aarons Edge rods and the video that was linked a few post back the first thing I thought to myself was "sham wow"!. It's almost infomercial like. From the whacky colors scheme, to the "E" on Enigma, to Aarons quoted line "I think they're the best rods on the market at any price". This all seems like a bad dream or an April fools joke. Companies pay graphic designers big time money to come up with the best logos but Enigma seem to have gotten a design from a child. I would expect Aaron with all that expertise and time with such artistic gears that he would help or come up with sleeker looking rods. I know some will tell me looks doesn't matter but I can counter with, if it didn't have Aaron Martens name on it would anyone really give these rods a shot with how it looks?
Only time will tell if these are a hit or not. Again good luck to Amart and whoever decides to try these. Post reviews
Tywithay reply :
I think that quoted line was from the sales manager, not Martens.

Tim Kelly reply :
Aaron Martens had a great deal of product endorsement credibility as he used the reels he liked, without sponsorship (though I'm sure he didn't pay retail for them) and fished with Megabass rods, which are widely acknowledged to be fine quality rods. The VMC hooks are undoubtedly good quality too, so no real obvious "he's only doing it for the money" stuff in his fishing sponsors line up. That credibility can be easily lost if he's gone to a company just for the paycheck. I'm sure they'll be perfectly fine rods, but he could easily over play his hand and lose a lot of sponsor value with all the companies who sponsor him if they turn out to be unexceptional fishing rods (other than being exceptionally ugly of course!).
Good luck to him, he's no fool so I hope it works out well for him.
BigSkyBasser reply :
This rod definitely sits significantly lower on my must have list than it would if my favorite pro did not make it look like he was marketing towards the Walmart fishing audience. I'd be more likely to buy a Berkeley Cherrywood based purely on how aesththetically displeasing it is.

EmersonFish reply :
But this comes up every thread that somehow gets into marketing. I made a comment once about how I thought it was a mistake for someone involved with the company to say something about, if memory serves me correct, the newest Veritas rod being "the finest rod on the market." People had the same reaction. "What are they supposed to say? It sucks?" No. But you don't spend time building credibility for a product by pointing out it's desirable features, and then instantly destroy that credibility by making a ridiculous statement. No one believes the Veritas rod, or this Enigma rod will the best rod regardless of price on the market; so why say it? I agree with bass1980 that it plays right into the "we're trying way too hard" image they are portraying. The sad thing is, these rods might be incredible bargains at their price point, and a lot of people will never give them a chance.On 2/4/2015 at 1:51 PM, Tywithay said:I think that quoted line was from the sales manager, not Martens.

They should take tips from ***. They came out of no where with clever marketing ideas. Selling rods below their price point to get their name out. Then now they are focusing on more enthusiasts line.

I bought an Aaron's Edge ML and a Pheonom spinning rod (the neon green one). I actually really like the way these rods cast and they have a nice feel to them. So far I am very happy with it.
burrows reply :
I was looking at these rods on tw, im in the market for a good cranking rod under 150bucks but I think the handle is a bit long at 16 inches for me. I heard some good things about those guides thoe, the colors of the rod really kills it as well, looks like a little kid picked out those colors.
Chance_Taker4 reply :
I personally love the look of both the Aaron's Edge and the Phenom. However I like bright and different colors in everything. Actually my 2016 jersey is close in color to the Phenom. aesthetics Aside these rods are the best at their respective price point. I love the Microwave guides, light, sensitive, with plenty of backbone. i own 2 Phenoms and 3 Aaron's Edge. I have no problem buying either rod again.

Yep, bought one way back in September of 15. Since the majority of comments are about color,There is no need for an in depth review. I will say, this rods performance far exceeds it's offending color.

Good ~ that's in depth enough for me.
At the very least it's experience based.

I have the 7'11" MH crank rod and it is anything but cheap. It's light for what it is, very well balanced and has a ton of power for XD10's and other oversized cranks.
I'm kind of good on rods forever, but I wouldn't hesitate to buy another from this line. They actually look pretty good in person.
