    Feeler: Orvis Powermatrix10 9wt

    9 foot 5oz 2pc

    Not really a huge fan of this rod for the typical conditions in my neighborhood. Kinda slow IMO.
    Any interest?

    If no interest, its going to have an accident so I can get the more tip flex oriented rod.

    The only thing worse than the feeling that you are going to die is the realization that you probably won't.

    If you have a Daiwa Zillion about to have an "accident" let me know.

    Ummm... Maybe...

    How slow is to slow?
    Since then it's been a book you read in reverse, so you understand less as the pages turn.

    The things you find on the net.

    Its a mid flex rod, not tip.
    I like a bit more stiffness in the mid body for turning over heavy head lines with streamers.

    I tried overloading the rod but its just as slow

    WF-9-F and the like and people who like a slow even cast wouldn't have a problem with it, but you can't overpower it and shoot line hard into a headwind.
