Is anyone using the 69mh Stallion GT? I recently purchased my 1st EG, the Orion Lightning Strike. Ratings on all EG rods throw me for a serious loop. The 69mh Stallion GT is rated up to an ounce, then the 7'1 MH models are rated up to 3 ounces. Real head scratcher. My Lightning Strike is rated up t...

I have 8 rods from the RS/GT line, and one of each model you listed. All of them are amazing. Typically due to the difference in the guide layout, and number of guides the RS models tend to be slightly faster. I have only fished the Stallion GT and RS models side by side. The GT was mine and RS belo...

I have 8 of the RS/GT models now and love the spineless models. I don’t need this one, but will probably end up getting it just because. Thanks for the write up.

Happy Saturday Bump...anyone have a source for easy access and shipping of these rods to the lower 48? I used the SNIPE service from JDMTackleHeaven.com to get my new Olympic Vigore 20GVIGC-71H and I posted first impressions and rod balance pictures of this rod and my new Luxxe Efreet B74xH-F rod (...

Mine came in this morning. I just slapped a reel on it ,and made a few casts in the pool. Very cool rod it reminds me of the OG MB Diablo XTI. They have a similar progressive taper, but longer with better feel, and sensitivity. It’s a very versatile rod for sure. The jackhammer I was throwing feels ...

This rod has been a winner so far. Have had it now for about a month and it's more than I expected. It's not the lightest rod, but that’s pretty typical of EGs. A bit over 160 g. The balance is good and it feels solid/substantial in hand. It a very good moving bait rod and handles both treble and s...

Sweet! Which version did you grab RS or GT-R?

I bought the GTR model

Right on! I’ve said it before on here but I love Evergreens Eva grips.

I just grabbed one myself earlier this week waiting patiently for its arrival. I bought the GT-R model with the shorter handle and longer tip to round out my EG collection.

Does the Black Raven Ext fish like a MH? Evergreen ratings are so all over the map. Wondering if this actually has the muscle for heavy cover or not? To answer your question simply... in my opinion NO. It's not that kind of rod. I use it around cover because that's just how fishing at the Delta is....

No box or papers closer to $175-225 in my opinion. A few years ago it was hard to find one for less than $300. I have 5 or 6 and the last 3 I bought were $225 or less on the jdm auctions. It’s been a while since I shopped for them though so my numbers might be off. New in box is $300+. If you don’t ...

Right on. I’m sure that will make a nice combo. Definitely a fun rod and different feel than other glass rods I own. Enjoy!

Sweet rod. Definitely something low profile. A big heavy round reel doesn’t fit the performance of the rod. Once you get it you’ll see what I mean. I didn’t buy a new reel for mine I had a zillion svtw laying around so I supped it up wit a spool and some aesthetics. It worked so well I never bothere...
