i went and really test casted the rod on thursday, i was using the new zee and brand new 30lb fireline.
I counted the cranks of the handle and did the math so i know the measurements are accurate.
once the line breaks in a little bit and i get use to the slower action of the rod i should be able to squeeze some distance out of it.
But was able to throw a 1.5 gibbs pencil 105 yards, loaded redfin 88 yards, ss 1.75oz needle 94 yards and a bunch of other stuff i didnt measure just fine.
Sweet spot is in my findings 1.5 to 2.5oz, but it did throw a 3.25oz bm needle with no issues.
Cant wait to put some serios time in with it and get use to the slower action that the rods I used last season.
