Strengths: Price is not bad for build quality. Forgiving action for the beginner.
Weaknesses: Soft action and lacks power with heavy flies. Too long for standard XL suitcases and roller holdalls.
Overall: A good rod for the very occasional pike or saltwater fly angler, more an 8 than 9 weight. A very good spare/back up if you are going away on a saltwater destination holiday. Struggled with a mouserat, and could not hand my bigger pike flies at all. However it has put some UK saltwater fish and some highland pike on the bank.
