    After having the Seth rod, are you thinking the more parabolic flex (if thats what it really is) will help the rod out?

    I have been tying messing with marabou/deer hair since the 70s, for the longest time I used a Garcia (not ABU) river Trout rod, 7-6...it it was very parabolic, for my marabou. I believe it was probably too parabolic. So it would need to be a balance, I think the seth and the Steez could go a bit deeper in the blank. I do think the light fast tip helps fling the 1/16 3/32 size pretty well. Not that I need another of these rods, I have a P5Flyssa on order, and several older 7-6 lt rods. but I am very intrigued by the comment Cory made. I like the seth, but if they could improve it......needs a bit more flex down the blank. Tied 4 doz tonight.....
