If you don't like it I'll buy it from ya [smilie=brows.gif]

Was it the Split Handle model??

I've got the 8' XH and it works great for the 10s and ok for the dawgs. I really like the extended handle option. Never knew how much easier it was to handle the "high water displacement" baits until I used this rod. Defiantly makes a difference, with that longer handle pushed against your side, taking some of the stress off your hands. Great company/guy to work with too if you have any issues or questions.

got a 9' mega heavy and a 9' medium heavy if anybody wants a sweetheart deal!! One season of use and I've rigidly attached the long handle sections.
