If you need a rod for small/medium sized rivers then this is it. It has so much power, great for sunk line fishing. Perfect if you like a fast action rod that will handle roll/overhead casting and spey casting.

Strengths:
Great rod for small/medium sized rivers. Great for roll/overhead casting as well as spey casting. Excellent handle and reel seat.

Needs a fly keeper ring.

Summary:
Most Two-handed rods have bad reel seats. This rod has a nice cork reel seat that allows you to take the reel off with no problem. It is really easy to cast this rod 100'+. It is so stout!

Strengths:
Very stout rod for long distance overhand casts. Can be used like a spey rod as well. It is hard to time it right but it will go. Great handle and reel seat allow for the reel to be removed without any effort.

Weaknesses:
None

Customer Service:
The best

Summary:
If you want a medium sized river rod that can be used for overhand casting and Spey casting than this is the rod. It has a unique taper that will allow someone to pursue both methods.

Strengths:
Very stiff for heavy lines. You can use a variety of line wts. on this rod(8-11)floating, and different sink tips as well. Great rod for overhand as well as spey casting. Shorter rod allows you to fish smaller river. Stout for ultimate power.

Weaknesses:
Too stiff for playing smaller fish. Not for the novice.

Reviewed by: Joe Minton ,  50+ days a year

Summary:
This rod is #1 for fishing heavy sink tips and shooting taper lines. The easiest 100ft you will ever experience on a two handed rod. Very short and light to get into hard to fish spots. Great for short small roll casts in tight situations. Buy this rod. Also good for overhand casting.

Strengths:
Awesome rod for sink tips and shooting heads. There is nothing like it. It is so powerful.

Weaknesses:
none
