Quantum Tournament Grade Im8 Graphite Rod.

I figured for 8 dollars at a garage sale I couldn't lose. This is a very short fast action rod that has good back bone for hard hook sets. Does anyone know if this rod is good?

Can't hurt to find out..

I have two of them. One is a 6'6" Med and the other is the same length in a MH. They're light and sensitive although I do own IM7 rods that are, IMO, more sensitive.  I would rate it higher on the scale than, say a BPS Extreme. It's a heck of a lot better looking than most with the butt wrap and the metalic thread used on the guide wraps and the premium cork..  They quit making them for whatever reason about eight years ago.  Too bad, because at the time they were introduced they out performed rods that sold for twice their price.  If they were to come out with them in a split grip with micro guides, I'd replace my two favorites with them.  That's how much I like them.
