Does anyone know if the Chaos rods that they sell now are the same as the old Chaos?

They are now being sold as "Boomerang" and are supposed to be the old "chaos" line

Thanks guys. I found out too from someone else that one of the brothers started Boomerang. They are supposed to be the same as Chaos with the same lifetime warranty.

I can give you some information regarding the rod blanks that were used by the original Chaos Company. Shoot me a PM and I will be happy to steer you in the right direction. You can find some of the blanks locally. depending on exactly what you were looking for. I do not want to get into the debate up here on the boards if somebody has a different opinion.

What rod / rods were you looking for?

Tom, I have 2 broken Chaos rods in here with Aftco wind on guides. These rods must have sold for abour $400 ea, You can see where they used a Gator look alike under the cracked epoxy. The fact is they went cheap, and just clear coated the blanks. I'm saving the guides and rebuilding the guy a new set of rods. I'll try to get pics up soon.
