Effortless loading, but can toss as much line as could conceiveably even catch a fish.

A bit pricey, but well worth it for a lifetime investment.

I was very excited to receive my blanks after casting this rod at the store. (Paid $500 Cdn) I cast at least 10 different rods (Sage. Winston, and other T and T''s) and found that this rod loaded flawlessly at all distances, and had pinpoint accuracy that surpassed the others. It loads at short distances easily, and I was able to punch out 80 feet of line with little effort. This rod does not have the extra-fast action of most of todays rods, which I believe is its finest attribute. You will experience must less casting fatigue, and will enjoy casting much more. A friend of mine had previously been dead set on something with a fast-action so he bought the T and T Horizon(also a nice rod). Once both rods were built, we went fishing and he was amazed by both the delicacy and power this rod had; something missing in his fast action rods. Of my 8 rods, I fish this most often, because of how perfectly it performs.
