I liked that it was 6'6". I've found myself moving back to shorter rods lately. I have a JDM 6-8 Blackscale rod that I take every time now. It seems I can react to a bite quicker with that rod than the longer rods I've been using for bottom contact.
Try not to let your mind wander. It is much too small to be outside unsupervised.

Look up the MB Destroyer Bandersnatch Carbonhead! Love this sucker for skipping brush hogs under docks!

I remember owning that WR1 and it really opened up my eyes to world of rod sensitivity. I wish I had kept that rod.

One of my first set of nicer rods were the Allstar T40X rods. Loved ‘em!
