"It is quite possibly one of the best 6wts on the market, glass, graph, or grass."

From our buddy Zeb Tonkavich at Snowman Custom Rod Works, via the Fiberglass Manifesto.

"I will only touch on this for a second because everyone keeps hearing how phenomenal the 686 is. This is a phenomenal blank. The beauty is in the fact that the rod can lay out ten feet of line with the delicacy of a full flex cane, but when called upon fire 95' of line into a stiff breeze. It does all of this with a great deal of feel and composure that most rods will never achieve. It is quite possibly one of the best 6wts on the mark glass, graph, or grass."
