I’ve used this rod for several weeks now and it’s noticeably lighter than my previous model. The sensitivity is excellent, especially when detecting subtle bites. The balance feels natural in my hand, and the guides stay clean even after frequent use.

Great for slow presentations and finesse fishing. The rod responds quickly to small movements and helps me set the hook without much effort. The EVA handle is comfortable during long sessions.
