I've been eyeballing this rod for some time now. Years in fact. However I never could bring myself to pay 4 figures for it.

I understand the rod will ship Monday. I hope to have it by Wednesday. :) Will be more than likely paired with this reel.

I figured you would go with a Pagani P300.  Plat has them at 20% off.

I can't stop ogling this rod. It's beautiful. It'll get a good workout this spring. :) Here's some pictures I took.

Rod comes with its own flannel shirt.

The ferrule fits nicely. Again awesome detail.

I think the yellow Pixzilla looks great against the bamboo. The cork grips tie it all together.

The classic round reel looks at home here as well.

that is the sweetest rod I have ever seen! Not a chance in hell I would use that thing, I have freakin lures I paid $25 for and don't use, never mind that piece of art.

My first rod was a split bamboo casting rod.  It eventually broke.  It had a Zebco 33 on it, which was a huge upgrade from the Flooger knuckle-buster that was originally on it.

Raul,

You need one of these rods...the place I bought it from has atleast one more. :)

I don't think I could have any interest in a combo like that. Now, all that liquor in the back ground...
