Those are the first two rods I bought when I moved here in '00 (not knowing any better being a bestcoast newbee). Maybe some guy named Jim pointed me in that direction
. They have turned out to be a couple of my favorites. I broke a guide on one and took it to Squidco to get it fixed. They re-wrapped the guide with the same Seeker thread colors and you just can't tell the difference. Squidco rocks.
