E21 opinions and observations

[MillerTime]

After getting to spend some time on the water with my 7'8" heavy/fast 21 Carrot Gold I feel I'm ready to pass some judgement:

Line Guides- They may be cheap looking but so far show no wear from the 65# PowerPro that's spooled on my Revo SX.

Sensitivity- Pretty good. Not Amazing but definitely a few steps up from my BPS Nitro which is also spooled with braid for those wondering.

Balance- Very good. My cousin has a 7'3" regular Carrot Stix paired with a Viento and it feels VERY tip heavy where I don't notice this with mine. Maybe it's due to cork grips on the Gold versus foam on the regular?

Aesthetics- Either you like them or you don't. I love the way they look but thats my opinion and you know what they say about those...

Overall- I really like this rod. It feels very solid and well built and I would recommend one to somebody looking for a rod in the $200 range.

Hope this helps someone!

    I am glad you like it.  I have a regular Carrot Stix flipping stick and I also love it.

My neighbor asked me that once. I looked at him serious as could be and told him grass carp. He doesn't ask me anymore.  ;D

alot of people ask me that when i check lures and plastics at the pool in my complex . they look at me crazy cause i'll ''fish'' for awhile on one lure or plastic, then tie on something else and be there for a good hour , people just don't understand  ;D ;D ;D
