Fenwick Increases an Already Good Value in Their HMG

This time around we made sure to get some more specifics about our review specimen so the components are much less of a mystery. Here's out look at the HMG's Search for One candidate, the HMG70MH-FC.

Back in the mid 70's when graphite rods first came out the Fenwick HMC 5 1/5 foot pistol grip rod for $99 was the holy grail. I had to settle on the Pro Bass model for $50. There weren't many options. Going from glass rod to graphite was truly amazing.

That would be my natural assumption...
