With only two to four meters of line out, we really feel that it’s mainly the upper meter of the rod that is in action. Despite its authoritarian action, it is very smooth. You cannot feel any parasite vibration. The rod casts for you, even at short distance. Thanks to this crazy tip action (and to the Konnetic technology ?), it is incredibly accurate. One can make true series of very accurate casts, very easily.
While throwing some more line out, we start to feel it working on the upper half. It is a fishing machine at medium distance (10-15m) with the kind of flyline (shooting-head type) we used. The rod is very well loaded, and gives all its potential. And honestly, there is only a tiny step to do between casting at medium and long distance. The fly caster who likes double-hauling will be delighted to see the backing going out of the rings, with a huge impression of ease.
