    Very interesting - after fishing my sage Accel and loving the slowness of the rod, I am even more convinced now that you shouldnt put too much value in these tests. Find a rod that suits your style by trying out several rods and line combinations from friends or shops.

    I would love to see a test with 10' rods was well.
    What is interesting was the comments about the very fast rods, Not the flavour of the month,
