Well good news and bad news. Good new is that rod preforms like a sturgens barbles finding food off the the bottom, amazing. My buddy was using a fenwick ultra light. 5ft rod. The rod you made me is lighter.

crazy light. He wants one. Let me know when ur back in action and ill hook you guys up. Bad news is. I didnt catch a walley on it. Tough bite. No biggie. Missed a bunch. Just a very light bite but man did i know they were there. The really bad news was my buddy wantd to handl it and when he did h caught a 22" firet walley on that rod and i didnt catch it. Funny. But that sold him. This weekend ill be gving it a work out an report back

Very happy that you're pleased with the new rod. I got another cortisone shot in the back this past Friday so if everything goes like it did last winter I should be good to go in another 3 weeks or so. Let your buddy know I'd be glad to get a rod together for him although with my current backlog he'll have to settle for using it next spring. Unless he's got a source of open water during the winter.

Good luck on your next outing and let me know how it turns out.
