Well i took the Fantasista Oren'ji out last night in the harbour to see how it handled a few different lures at different weights and types.
the first lure was a 40g Rapala Skitter Pop. I Cast out around 80yds or so which is around 20yds more than I could with my old 10ft Abu Ruby Crest. :)
The first thing I noticed was how easy it was to work surface lures. It also worked them alot more vigorously than my old softer spinning rod. Surface lure test - DONE :)
I then went for my old faithful Maria Chase BW Red Head. The rod brought the lure to life instantly as I darted it towards me.
All in all im thoroughly impressed and I cant wait for that first bar of silver to get hold.

Hi Dan, whats the latest on the rod, any success? How does it compare to other spinning rods in its price range i.e. Tenryu 270 or Daiwa Powermesh X Spin? How much does it weigh & how much did it cost?
