And it is deliciously black and evil! The Darth F'n Vader of rods!
I have been eyeballing these since they come out. I would like to put one of my Alphas on it but I'm afraid of some kind of weird imbreeding going on. It would look real good though, black and purple. Good choice!! Got any more pics of the handle? How stiff is the EVA? I know, questions..questions.

Your wish is my command.
Lemme fire up the Canon...BRB
To me, the foam is about the same as cork. Has a little rougher feel, which is something I like. The true test for me will be seeing how it wears and how it weathers.
Man, that thing is sweet. d**n you Burley, you know what I gotta do now. It never ends.. :'(
That thing will look too good with an Alphas!! I wonder if they'll imbreed?
BTW, thanks for the extra pics, much appreciated.
I was smitten the instant I picked one up.
Hopefully I can baptize it with the blood of a 6 or 7 pounder.
Sick rod man.
The BaitMonkey saga continues! My wife will not be happy but I will.
Nice rod Burley! I'm actually considering a Cumara to put my Chronarch 51 Mg on for Wormin' :-/.
Thanks for the pictures,
Nice looking rod Mr Walnuts.
Did it fall off the back of a truck?

There 's something unholy about sitting a Daiwa reel on a Shimano rod. :-?

I certainly can hear an annoying sizzling sound Burley ..... like if something is melting.

Burley is the worst thing to happen to me in my fishing. I got by fine and caught plenty of fish with my ol' walmart combos then we went fishing together one time. It turned him onto bass fishing and since he just keeps throwin that monkey at me, all he is is a d**n enabler. Got me buyin a new Curado 201DPV today, and now looks as if I am gonna have to get at least one of those Cumara's now.
I ain't holding a gun to your head.

You knew crap was gonna happen if you left them like that.
Took me a week to find the d**n hook keeper. It's in the d**n handle! :-?
I was looking at one of those this past saturday, but a Carrot Stix was able to wrestle me to the ground for $105.00 out the door. I'll be back for one though, it's the handle that I like. It's not just foam. Like Burley said, it's rough. I don't know how to explain it.
