cts rods are supposed to be a lot lighter and thinner in comparison to the century and other rods, becuase of how they manufacture the blank, thinner= less wind resistance/lessweight, but still supposed to be as strong as other rods. Supposed to save the shoulder during the season. elderly gentlemen seem to especially like them cuz it takes less effort to cast. Thats the main diff i've gathered from articles and the one rod guy i talked to about em

something clever and related to fishing

As far as the legends go, they are not IMO an upgrade over what I use now. Besides I broke one putting med pressure on a fish. A rod I borrowed no less to see how I liked it, OOPS !

just tellin truths old man seriously though especially the vapor trail which is parabolic, they're supposed to be really easy to cast limiting fatigue over long days/nights of casting. not just for the older crowd, I want one too. of course im sure someone will chime in im built like a stick lol
