This is the Taper & Shape Japan Trout VGen. It's the only pack rod in the Japan Trout series. Glass rods often have a reputation for being heavy and sluggish, but as expected from Taper & Shape, this rod is lightweight and has a crisp, muscular feel. While crisp, it's not overly stiff, and can easily cast lightweight lures. Also, the tip recovers quickly during casting, making it perfect for accurate casts. I think this is a rare rod, so don't miss this opportunity. Please refrain from price negotiations. Thank you.
