excellent,September 18, 2007
By cliffjumperfrom Vancouver Island B.C.
"I have the 17#, 8'6" casting and 8'6" 12#-rated spinning.
The casting reel is a Diawa Millionaire CV-Z 253, 17# Trilene XL.
Accuracy of the rod is excellent, feel, sensitivity, strength are very good. It has yet to catch its intended steelhead, but 12 Coho salmon are notched on the handle.
Casting action is smooth, with enough backbone to add a boost to your longer casts.
Rated at 1/4 oz+, it easily casts 1/4 oz jigs over 100'. With 3/8 oz+ you'll clear the other river bank. On short casts to closer targets, even 3/16 oz is well-handled and goes right where you want it.
The 12# 8'6" spinning rod outcasts and outfishes my 8'6" 20# Shakespeare Ugly Lite using the same reels and lines, as 6 Rivers is more precise, more sensitive and has more backbone on the cast, even with its lighter line-rating.
I also really like the reverse beavertail handle which fits very well and is warm & comfortable to hold. The cork quality is very good. It is a very nice handling rod for panfry to freezer-quality fish.
I strongly suggest these rods as a very good choice. Even better, they are value-priced.
Cheers!"
