Haven’t been to the water to try out the new rods , but I got put in the driveway today with a trout magnet and tried them out for casting distance .
I swapped a Shimano Nasci 500 reel spooled with 2# P-line on each rod to give an equal comparison.
The 5’6” Procyon came in last , casting the TM around 36-38’ .
The 6’6” TCB rod consistently cast right at 45’ .
The surprise winner was the 4 piece 6’ Daiwa Presso that was throwing the TM just under 50’ .
Can’t wait to get them on the water .
Hopefully tomorrow.
