I'm tempted to build either an Epic 8' or CTS glass 8'6" 10wt for musky out of my kayak. I'm interested in how a heavier glass rod will work for slinging musky and fighting them close to the kayak. The glass has a lot more forgive especially when trying to net them close to the kayak.Yes, the Epic's do seem to have a faster action on them, I'm definitely not one of the "wet noodle" glass guys (no disrespect to someone who is), I prefer the faster action. Maybe because I am more of a graphite rod user in general so the step down to the faster Epic is less dramatic of a step than going with a slower action glass rod. I also presume because you are slinging DT lines off of your rods that are most likely doing dry fly and dry/dropper work, whereas I am tossing an indi rig on mine so I need a more aggressive line to move the rig around.
