Thought I'd share since it's the holidays and someone may be looking for a gift idea for a fisherman in your life or just for yourself. If you have never handled a Phenix feather go find one and give it a try. Bought myself one last spring and have since bought 3 more. I have owned several high end loomis, shimano, and dobyns rods and these best em all for weight and sensitivity. I use them for finesse bass fishing and crappie fishing. Now they are very light and you can snap them if you abuse them but they do have a warranty. They run in the $150-$180 price range. I'm telling y'all you won't be disappointed.
