This 11' #2 really comes into its own when fished with a high rod action, when casting distance becomes more important than casting speed. The 335 cm length, 14 guides, and the first guide positioned at 26 cm help keep the line well-controlled during drifts. The blank combines speed, power, and progressive action, offering useful reserve for large fish without unnecessarily making the fight more difficult. The double-ring downlocking reel seat contributes to the rod’s overall balance.
