Awesome Mark,

Very nice rod...effortless tool-from trout to surf!

Vlad,
Indeed! The switch rod is awesome tool for shooting. I haven't use them in the surf yet, but I heard they are pretty good in fishing shooting head line.
BTW, I really do think the finese of fiberglass material will just add another bonus for the spey cast... I am still waiting for my Mcfarland 7wt blank to me...should be a nice one! ;)

This second video has a great explanation of the snap t... very nice!

I also think that glass can make some awesome switch rods-not high power speedy graphite style, but nice and fishable classic rods.

Totally agree! Vlad,

FF has nothing to do with the power...It all about "the feel"! That's what fiberglassflyrodders say : )
