Tom, call me Tom. Yes, ...Whoa, Mr. Davis is my Dad. Tom, call me Tom. Yes, I have the penny ratings. If click the Rod Flex Index Chart tab up at the top you can see that this rod is moderately stiff. At 240 cm it's 19 and at 290 cm it's 22. That gives this rod a RFI of 7.5 and 7.4 respectively. Pros: It's very lightweight. It has a flexible tip allowing you to cast light level lines. It allows two different configurations. Cons: It's hard to get, although Chris should be able to get them. It has a stiff mid an lower section -- it's not a full flex rod, rather, it's a tip flex rod. Your cast needs to be short and quick. Some folks don't like rods like that. I'm still not sure if I like it completely or not. I think it will take me a while longer before I decide.Tom Davishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18240935660681343164noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4952460912398461727.post-76286575924684377952015-02-20T13:01:21.304-08:002015-02-20T13:01:21.304-08:00Dear Mr. Davis,
