Re: Phenix at ICast
Unless you're going for a specific look or color appointment, IMO the K2 will be about perfect off the rack (providing they follow through on the tweaks they mentioned at the show). You have to handle one to truly appreciate how nice it actually feels and handles.

Thats great news. The nicest rods ive used are cumulus, cumara, and dobyns dx rods so this should be a huge upgrade.

Been fishing one very close to that spec for a while, it's unnerving casting a rod so light, it feels like a BFS rod in hand. It created a new tier of rods Australia.
