Interesting looking rod (Alphas Trinis), i love the reel seat, it is way 8-)

What are the specs. on it and where can we see them. Who makes them?
My biggest worry is that my wife (when I'm dead) will sell my fishing gear for what I said I paid for it.

Their two piece sticks (shippable EMS) for 16,000 yen ($131 USD) are sure affordable. :shock:

Are the sticks as sweet as they look?

The Trinis, for that price, its sure one light weight rod. How's the sensitivity? Any good?

I have only used the 63 ML once and I use it with weightless Zoom Trick worm twitching it on top of the water. I plan on throwing small topwater plugs, trick worms and light plastics with this set up. The 66 MH I have used a ton it has a lot of back bone, to me it is MH/H. I use it for jigs, heavy plastic rigs and my big spinner baits. I have also rigid swimbaits on this rod but it is not really long enough for swimbaits but it worked. I am going to take out the ML today. I will try some different baits and let you know how it goes.
Thanks

I used the tranis extensively today throwing Zoom Trick worms, yamamoto grubs, Yum dingers, and a Jackal cherry crank. The rod preformed great with the modified Presso it was one like rig. The sensitivity was good not as good as my Steez but I don't think I missed a strike today on it. I give it a B+ / A- for the price and the quality. I will be looking at more of there sticks when the new models come out.
