I received mine (511 L) earlier than expected. Fished it today (with Ester) on a quick pre-work trip. It certainly has more power than the Finetail 63 SUL. Feels crisp and it’s a bit stiffer than my other area rods. However, if I recall correctly, Randy once said that Majorcraft rods are typically faster than other brands. It is definitely more sensitive than Finetail. But I also wouldn’t say it’s more than a couple of classes above the Finetail in terms of sensitivity. Maybe the 6L would be a good option because I am guessing (could be wrong) that its action might be a bit softer than the 511L since it is meant to be used with PE. Overall it’s a fine rod. Would have no issues cranking up the drag a few notches with larger sized panfish (like the shellcracker you catch) and the occasional bass.

One last observation… it casts really far.
Almost like the Yamaga Blanks JH special TZ Nano.
