I'm not really in the market for a new rod, but this one caught my eye, mainly because of the price. I think it's the cheapest rod I found that has a 10ft 7wt model which I've kinda been searching for but haven't really done any serious thinking/research. I had steelhead(and also carp, bass, and whatever else) in mind. My two current steelhead rods are a 6wt and an 8wt and they are both 9 footers, but from what everyone keeps saying that one extra foot really makes a difference which I truly believe.
So, anyone have this rod?
I also noticed it comes in an 11ft 6wt model(at the same price), which I assume from looking at the pictures it would be a "switch" rod. Anyone have any experiences/insight on that version even if it's not a Cabela's TLr? Just not sure how much use I'd get out of an 11ft 6wt. I'd mainly be fishing the PA and Ohio tribs(yeah, I realize there's a big difference in size, etc. lol) and also warmwater.
Again I haven't really been looking for a new rod, but this is tempting. Just trying to get some discussion going. Thanks for any feedback.
