Ordered an S2H1356 from Mr. Meiser.
Man, was that worth the wait!
As you Meiser fans will attest, he has got this one dialed. I figured I was getting a light trout spey and had, in fact, cast this blank (the Anderson blank) on a rod made by another craftsman and thought it a nice 6ish rod. When I got mine I was tremendously pleased with the fact that it was even faster in the butt than the one I had tried, and is, in my opinion, a true 7 wieght, albeit a light one. It casts the Airflo long Delta 6/7 with tips very nicely. I have tried the sages, CND's and other trout speys and this rod has the most "Authority" to it. It will shine as a light steelhead and shad rod and would do nicely on large waters for large trout. If you can imagine a T&T 1307 but with more feel to it, this is it. The workmanship is absolutely beautiful, and about the only thing I can say to anyone looking for a 7 weight is, you'll be sorry if you don't try this before you buy something else.
Now if I just had a few fish...... :roll:
