Rich,
The Heagraph topic comes up from time to time and some people like them and some don't. I am clearly in the latter group. While I have owned (and loved) a few B&W's the Hexagraph is not one of them! It is soft, noodle-like and heavy, I'm sure you will hear somebody come on and say they love it, but when compared to modern double handers - including B&W's other rods it is not a good rod. I say run from this rod :whoa:
