Anyone goin to the micro guided rods? Im fixin to buy some new fishin grip and wondering if this is a fad or the real deal. I bought a carbonlite from bass pro with micros last year and it seems pretty good but not sure if i wanna go with all micros. What's the ob's thoughts...

they are counter intuitive for sure. I am still waiting on a definitive test where everything is exactly the same except for the guides. I don't think they want to do it because it will expose the fad. just my opinion though.

I've got carrot sticks with and without. the one without is 7'10" the one with is 7". can't tell. I have an Angler Envy 7" with large (almost bullet proof) guides and it will outcast them both. It has a Pennix blank.

I might get something, not too expensive, one with standard and one with micro, and do a little testing. anyone interested in seeing a video of the results?

I have a couple, and like them. Falcons.

I 'think' they are a bit more sensitive, with more contact from line to rod, but thats just me.
