Warning stay a way from me

I invited fishballer06 to fish with me. We went to the local lake which is very tough, leading us to more conversation and showing off our newest tackle. He showed me his DC765Flip which is more stout than I expected. It is now on my wish list.
But then the trouble started when he was handed my DRX755c. He made a cast on a gravel shoreline and said " WOW I can feel every pebble ".

I just received a text stating that someone is looking at a new Xtasy.

Word of warning: to use an Xtasy is to poke the monkey hard.

For fear that my wife will read this - I made no such statement

But for real, these new Xtasy rods are the most sensitive rods I've ever held. That DRX755 has more sensitivity than my IMX's, GLX's, and my Orochi's. I was totally blown away.

^My exact face whenever I held that rod.

I still haven't done anything but hold one... I'm going to get a couple here real soon though. Looks like the 755 needs to be high on the list.

The rock group the Who wrote a song about the Xtasy 755. The lyrics start:

SEE ME
FEEL ME
TOUCH ME
HEAL ME

Mike it is a special rod for sure. The power throughout the rod is unbelievable. But yet pitches and casts like a MH rod.
The fishing fighting ability of this is the true benefit, set hook and wind, the fish will not get back down into the slop with it.
You will be able to count each Cypress knee with a t-rig.

I almost backed off a bit on the power of the 755C. It's probably closer to what a 5 1/2 power would be. But, it's awesome rod. I had a drop ship for a dealer today where his customer ordered 2 of them. Told the store owner I was an A$$ hole for making a damn rod he had to have and especially 2 of them. It was funny as hell. The 754C is slightly stronger seller than 755C but both sell 100 times better than I'd of thought. In TX and LA areas the 755C is king.

I am glad you didn't back off. I love the power on it but it casts and pitches like a 5 power or less.
