    Got my replacement KastKing Kestrel SFS 1000 reel today .
    Great customer service !
    Got my new KastKing Kestrel FeatherLight 5’2” rod today too.
    A little stiff for a featherlight IMO . Rated 1-3# line 1/64- 1/10 lures .
    Rod is supposed to weigh 3.4oz , doesn’t feel heavy . Actually pretty light feel with the reel on it . Nice neutral balance . Grip feels pretty good.
    I loaded the little reel with some KastKing 6# braid , tied on a 1/64 trout magnet and took it outside to my testing lab ( driveway) .
    49-52’ out of six casts . Not bad for dry braid .
    I’m anxious to get it on the water and get it a proper sliming with some gill slime .
