FNJ,

Bought mine last Feb, fished it almost daily till the end of April. Took a beating, and runs like a Deere..:-)

I'm looking for another one, now. I found some good deals on eBay, with the RH at about $65.00 and the LH about $75.00...dang it, I need LH.

Just bought a new Berkley IM7 (always fished Lami in the past).. but this rod is so lightweight, even at 8'6", and the Trion will look and perform awesome on it. Really looking forward to burying a hook into the first winter run of the year!

Mike
