I gave the Evergreen Superior Scout Master a good workout yesterday. Even though this rod is listed as a light action, while fighting a fish, it felt more like an UL to me. However it is very steely. Sensitivity is incredible. Jacob and I were fishing our local creek and I could feel when my jig would go through different velocities. Crazy sensitive! 8-9 in green sunfish put up a pretty good fight. I also caught a 16-in spotted bass that gave the Scout Master a run for the money. These stream fish give an incredible fight. After a five minute battle (seemed like 30 min). I landed the fish. But while trying to take a picture, I dropped my phone in the creek. Luckily the rice in a bag in the sun trick worked and phone is ok. I think this rod will be excellent for minnow imitation lures. I tried to fish lighter Ned rigs on the bottom but kept getting snagged up and the 4-lb fluorocarbon leader would give before retrieving the lure. Bottom line is this rod is something special. Oh yeah, the 20 Luvias 2000S is pretty sweet too!
