I have a Phenix Mirage that did not get much use, especially after acquiring a few JDM rods and blanks. The issue was exceptionally slow blank recovery while casting. Also, while fishing out of a kayak the tip would immerse into the water if

It was a really nice day around here yesterday and I capped it off with a trip back to the pond that 870 and I fished last week. An even 80 degrees with low humidity at waters edge and the surface water temp at 78 out over the basin. Wind was
