The Fiberstar are great fishing rods. Great blank designs, quailty workmanship and components and good layouts. I fish a couple of the Predator series and love them. As John mentioned I have one from the new line he is putting out. I have been fishing mtk for a years and fished there quite a bit with John this year. He decided to have this new line setup specifically to fish that type of environment. He asked me to setup it up for that. I spent a day out there test casting with Paulie with that setup. They layout is done. The rod itself is great a true 1 -5, loads down to the handle but doesn't get mushy even with a 5oz bank sinker. It throws a 1 oz bucktail very well for a rod the handles the 4 and 5 range easily. The rod has a lot of character not just a stiff pole. You can get a good cast without much effort but if you want to push it does not quit on you it loads deeper and responds. While the rod does load down through the handle the recovery on a cast is pretty quick, one bend down down after the cast thats about it.
