What total weight would you say it tops out at? If possible, would you be willing to post some pics?reason162 wrote: ↑Thu Jan 21, 2021 11:25 amManaged to snag one of the first batch of 610MLs, got it today.
First impression - this is not a DS rod. Compared to my Expride 610ML, it seems to be about a power heavier through the tip and mid section. Probably perfect for 4" flukes, finesse swimbaits and jigs...maybe a finesse hard jerkbait rod too. FWIW the 6'7ML Adrena lies somewhere between the Expride and Vigore in power.
Incredibly light and balanced as you would expect - fit/finish is perfect 10/10.

one of the Vigore videos from Olympic did mention the power of 610ML is more in line with M, so it looks right I guess...
when you say it is not a DS rod, do you mean the tip is not soft enough? I also have a Expride 610ML and I wouldn't mind Vigore has a little stiffer tip as I won't use it for vertical drop shot.
