About Duckett
Duckett Fishing is an Alabama-based bass fishing tackle company founded by professional angler and 2007 Bassmaster Classic winner Boyd Duckett. The company began after Duckett left the Carrot Stix project and launched Duckett Fishing LLC to produce tournament-focused rods built around micro-guide concepts and pro input. Its catalog now includes bass rods, crappie rods, reels, hard baits, soft baits, jigheads, apparel, and accessories.
The rod lineup is centered on freshwater bass fishing, with most models offered in technique-specific casting and spinning actions. Duckett has moved through several well-known families, including Micro Magic, White Ice, Ghost, Jacob Wheeler, Zeus, Silhouette, Cloak, and MaxCore. The brand sits in the value-to-mid-premium tournament-bass space, usually emphasizing light weight, balance, micro guides, and angler-developed actions rather than broad multispecies coverage.
What Duckett is known for
Duckett is known among bass anglers for white-finished rods, micro-guide layouts, and a pro-driven identity tied to Boyd Duckett, Lake Guntersville, and tournament bass fishing. The original Micro Magic rods helped popularize micro-guided bass rods in the mainstream U.S. market, while later series such as Ghost, Jacob Wheeler, and Micro Magic Pro kept the brand focused on technique-specific casting and spinning models. Its niche is affordable to mid-price bass rods with a distinctive look, light-feeling blanks, and actions aimed at common tournament techniques such as jigs, Texas rigs, crankbaits, jerkbaits, frogs, and finesse spinning.
