They do look good on paper and seem like a great rod for around $300. I'm also interested in the 6'3 model, rated PE 2-4 for bottom bashing and jigging. Not sure if you're going to find a rod that will be comfortable to use jigging as well as casting poppers but that's just me. Also interested in how those who've tried and tested the MM rods compare them to the Live Fibre range.
Look forward to more opinions.
