Don't count em out yet haha. Just one review so far but def not a good start that's for sure.

I think that the Epitome is very solid feeling especially that it is incredibly light weight. The action is really nice MBR and can do moving baits and bottom contact. Nothing bad to say at all. I am not sure what I was expecting or hoping this rod to do. My recent purchase and use of the Trika rod...

The damage to to tip was disappointing. I emailed a picture of the damage to edge customer support, but so far no response. I guess I have to call and complain. I have fished the rod on two occasions. I have fished jerkbaits, blade baits, lipless and a jig. It seems to be a "do it all" ty...

That's how the rod came to us... we do not modify any product that is in the process for review.

eagerly anticipating the review cal. appreciate all that you guys do here

What reel are you all pairing with this rod? There was kind of a thread about it here (at least by extension): http://www.tackletour.net/viewtopic.php?f=47&t=88531 I've weened myself off the idea of using a Zenon. Thinking of moving the MGXtreme from that broken Zbone over (but it might look ba...
