I've had one of these for about 5 yrs and it's been fantastic. I need to buy a new one because apparently my son thinks it's fantastic too. LOL

I've fished this rod for 5+ years. For the price it can't be beat. Best rod I have ever used. I even bought a spare just in case I ever break my first one. The longer rod really makes fishing these light lures on light line easier. I feel I get better hooksets with the longer rod as well.

I got this rod for my birthday, and it is now my go to rod. It casts really well, but truly shines when setting the hook and fighting fish. It is quick enough to set the hook but flexible enough to catch large fish on light line.

Had this rod for three years....time to buy another one and will get two this time around. I have caught literally hundreds of rainbows and Browns, small mouth bass, the occasional catfish, and other small fish. I absolutely love this rod. The tip finally broke (my fault) when I was loading my kayak and gear. Love the action and feel. One complaint...the cork was beginning to peel after the first year or so and was peeling very badly when I broke it last week.

This is a great rod for trout fishing. It's affordable, light, durable and somewhat flexible. I have ordered 3 so far and stopping there :-)
