The handle is very comfortable, probably the most comfortable of all my rods, and I have many. No time on the water yet to give you a function report. This particular rod has a very soft (ML) tip and a very stiff (M+) backbone. It doesn’t have much bend through the blank, it’s all tip. The Victory version of this rod has the exact same taper.
