Awesome review. I will add a little to it, but mostly just rehash the good stuff that you said.
I agree with Chris, its a damn good rod. I have been throwing it most days after work. I also agree that a VS 150 would be perfect on the rod. I think i will be using a 200 on it, i also tried it with a ZB 27 and that reel in my opinion is just too big to balance on the rod. It sucks because the zb gives more distance (5-10 yards) just feels a bit too big.
I haven't been able to crack 100 yards with it yet, i have been consistently very close. I have piss poor form so i wasn't expecting miracles with the rod.
Its great for rigged sluggos and a variety of bucktails from .75-2.5 oz, its very sensitive. I didnt try anything over 2.75 ounces so i havent maxed it out yet, might give that a try in a bit. It does throw an unweighted redfin nicely, all the water evaporated in it.
Fishing a 10' rod is weird for me. Ive been primarily throwing a 11' for the past 3 years so the 10 seems so dinky. It is nice though having something so light. Next on deck for me is a CTS vapor trail 11'. I fondled one at RISSA and that is another impressive stick. Parabolic with balls at the end.
Excellent eel rod very sensitive as well can feel anything and everything.
saw the 10 ft stealth today at MSBA. thing is crazy light and thin, felt really nice, wish i coulda casted it. No CTS booth at the show bummer. But I can't imagine something being lighter or thinner than that thing, sheesh...
Tight lines.
