Re: Tom Morgan rods..
Craftsman? I believe Mark Steffen made the best graphite blanks, his finish work was utilitarian.
Best overall graphite rod? I think that would be Sage or Thomas and Thomas; flat out performance minded and the fit and finish is beautiful.
If in fact Loomis makes those blanks for Tom, then I really don't see $1,400 is worth my money, as was said, if that is what the market brings, the guys who buy them probably are not the anglers that would want to fish the places I would want to fish with it, just rich, really rich. Take a guide discount on a Sage and the $1,000 left over and fish somewhere for a while...
I don't believe a plastic rod is worth that much to me, NO WAY.
Just my opinion.
For performance and quality, Orvis and Temple Forks, maybe a St.Croix.
I think if you are going to place that much time into a rod, might as well be bamboo and if you choose a graphite stick for all out casting performance, might as well buy a, ahh, I can't think of the guy who makes the completely hollow bamboo rod with a graphite ferrule, MACCA.
Wayne Macca.
What I think is the "best" and what you think is the "best" is subjective.
Zac, absolutely no disrespect to you, not one single bit, I just don't agree.
And no one should be sorry for having a opinion and being respectable about writing it either.
