Anybody own, cast, handled or seen these up close? Looking at building a 6 weight switch for summer fishing but am having a hard time justifying outlaying time, $ and effort to craft if I could get the length, action, weight and basic ammenities I'm after, especially in inexpensive finished form.
Haven't purchased a factory rod in a long while so a little skeptical about jumping back on the mass produced bandwagon...Any input would be much appreciated.

(#1136-4 is model in question.)
