Very curious about these rods. The very sensitive description of the prototype is definitely something I’d like to hear more about.
Also, what size are the guides? I personally have come to hate micro guides.

Heads up, they have relisted new actual rod weights. They aren't as light as originally advertised. Another member described his as feeling tip heavy.
