is it a nano technology thing?the matching smoke rod is best.as to your question,varitas.carrots sticks dont have nice guides,i think varitas is lighter and more balanced.gl looking.

Your best bet is to go to the store and test them out. Keeping in mind that these are 100 rods, each one of them will not have a significant difference from the other. If there are, they will be minimal. It'll depend on how it feels with your reel on it and if you like how the combo looks. Just my two cents, not sure if it helps but GL on new rod.

Carrot's guides are crap! How could they make a $100 rod with metal guide???

i honestly think the carrot stix are hideous and the veritas would look sorta cool with the smoke reel...ill probably end up getting that....plus its the only one that comes with a 6'6" model

Veritas has Ti alloy frames and SiC inserts, do you know of anything better in a 100 dollar rod?
