I have the 6'9" and a 7'4" both medium spinning rods.

I really like them and would rate them as performing much better than the price point they are set at.

I also think you'll soon hear from other BR members who have been using them for a while.

Recent reports indicate that many BR anglers are happy with them.

I have never used them but I did see some yesterday for the first time and I was really impressed with how they felt especially at the price point!

I have the 6'9" M-XF spinning rod and the 6'10" MH-MF casting rod and they are nothing short of awesome. I have no clue as to why these rods weren't $200 when they came out but I'm glad they weren't. Anyway, the spinning rod I have performs flawlessly, the extra fast action is spot on and lets me feel when a fish is just barely nipping at a tube or small jig, and did I mention how well it cast light lures, it really is a great rod. The casting rod I got is another great rod, extremely light with a moderate fast action that is closer to fast, you can throw deep divers with that rod no problem but I really like it for larger square bills like the Xcalibur 200 and 300 series and it has become a favorite for larger jerkbaits like the vision 110 and the pointer 100, the tip is a little faster than most moderate fast action rods which gives me total control over the bait but when you hook up it has the flex that allows you to fight the fish without pulling the hooks out. I was at Cabela's today and I got a chance to check out the 6'3" M-MF casting rod and I can tell you I'm going to get it, I didn't really need another rod in the crankbait/jerkbait catagory but this rod is a must have! I want that rod for fishing the smaller square bills on the river where accuracy is needed much more than distance and if you pick that rod up you will have a hard time putting it down, I don't think it is even 3 ounces, just an incredible feel. The final thing I can tell you is the reel seats are the most comfortable I ever used, it makes the rod feel like it is a part of your arm and it is like that on both the spinning and casting models, Fenwick really won me over with this series so if you are thinking of getting one just do it, you won't be sorry.

I have the 6'9" ML power spinning rod. It's a great rod and I wouldn't hesitate to buy another. You might be able to still find them even cheaper than retail on Amazon. If you can, it's a no brainer.
