I'm interesed if someone can send some pics with the curve of the taper?!?
Also whitch is the length of the handle?
For what lures and applications is suitable?
The diameter of tip and butt?
PM replied - hope this helps with your buying decision. For what it's worth I have really enjoyed fishing this rod this past few weeks. If you're an EG fan, you won't be disappointed.
I have the SuperStallion Black and it is a great rod. It very sensitive, loads awesome, has great feel when you have a fish on and fights fish amazing..lots of control...and it just looks mean. I love to use it to pitch Jigs but it really shines with casting heavier spinnerbaits.
The SS black is my go to casting rod when I can only take one rod. To me, 7'1" is sort of an odd length, but it works along with its wide lure rating to make the rod a very versatile.
Having said all of that, If the RS was available when I made my purchase I would have went with that, I prefer the cork handle. The Black has the double footed guides, I think I read somewhere that the RS has single footed; which I prefer.. and the blank is maybe a bit more "moderate" on the black, geared more for moving baits.
Not sure whether it’s still relevant but I own a EG GT2RS. I’m a wading fisherman, using most often just one rod. I took the GT2RS rather than the black because the guides are the biggest in the Super Stallion series (at that time). Bigger guides make a difference if you use big leaders (I only fish pike so I use 60-80lbs fc leaders).
