A special shoutout to Team Artificial AF for taking home the Open Bait Division Championship and earning Team of the Year!

Congratulations as well to Team Port Lavaca Auto Group for winning the Artificial Only Division!

It’s always inspiring to see so many talented women on the water, and even better seeing so many Waterloo rods in their hands. Thank you all for representing the sport with passion, determination, and class.

Great work, Legends! 💪🏻

Almost 30 years ago, Waterloo Rod Company started with a passion for building something special for fishermen on the Texas coast.

Today, we celebrate that journey with something built the same way — by fishermen, for fishermen.

Introducing the “Thirtyloo” custom color by Coastal Brew Baits. A bait inspired by years on the water, memories made chasing trout and reds, and the people who’ve been part of this brand along the way.

From Matagorda to Port Mansfield, this color was designed to fish everywhere our story has been written.

And the best part… this wasn’t built by just one person. It was created alongside friends of ours who’ve spent years on the water with us and around this brand:







Trent Whitley
& boss man Jimmy B!

Pearl top. Copper flake belly.
Simple. Proven. Effective.

Technically our 30 year anniversary isn’t until September… but honestly, we couldn’t wait any longer to release this one.

Available NOW in:• 5” Darts• 6” Darts• 8” Darts• 5.5 Deceivers

Thank y’all for being part of these 30 years.

We’ve stayed real quiet about this lure… for a reason. 👀

Tomorrow, y’all finally see what we’ve been working on.

The “Thirtyloo” drops tomorrow. Stay Tuned!
