Re: Holy cow batman!!!
Well, Finally finished the first Phenix Proto Type. It is the 7'1" Heavy action. The blank weighed 1.96 oz and the finished rod came in at 3.81 oz. Sure I could have made it lighter but as Vince stated "Holy Cow". I had it out on Sunday and threw some Senko around. I cannot believe I was fishing a heavy action rod. It felt like I was fishing with my DS rod. Too bad I did not get to hook a fish to see how it feels. The blank felt very stiff and fast, both fits my style great. Here are some pics of it paired with my Bob:
