Had one and sold it to Jordan. Very nice rod. Well built. I'm just not a fan of the spiral guides.

I broke one of the eyes of mine while trying to get it out the rod box one day ! My buddy fixed the eye and never returned cause he likes it so much ! Lol both rods r still in great shape and still going strong ! There prices aren't that bad ether !

I use mostly 7' mediums with a fast tip, 9'' handle... last one I got “k” series micro guides. I wouldn’t get micro guides if you use >15lb flouro leaders tied to your braid.
