Eagle Claw/W&M Sweetheart Glass?

[Big-Bass]

Cabala's has this rod in a 7' 5wt. and I have never heard of it. Any good for $19.88? Thanks!

MSRP is $80. How can you go wrong for $20?

I got mine out yesterday it was a great rod for 20 dollars. I paired it with a 5 weight wf line and it did a very nice job. Never had the opportunity to use an original sweetheart, but looking forward to comparing the two.

I actually sent mine back after I bought it the other day. Compared to my C.G.R., it seemed very fast for a glass rod and the cork was really loaded with a lot of fill on mine. Granted, I know it was $20, but it felt very similar to some 7'+ graphite rods instead of glass as the intended purchase. Hopefully all of you have good luck with yours and catch a bunch of fish!

I agree with big-bass the cork work is awful, there is a lot of filler on my handle and it is a faster action than what I was Hoping for also.
