BPS Spring classic Abu/Bps extreme rod combo?

[Tom 513]

Ive been wanting to buy 3 identical bass rod/reel combos. BPS has the Abu Gracia Orra sx spinning reel on a BPS extreme pole for $169.98 , I had bought a Abu Orra s last year and love it, so I am wondering how it will pair with a 7ft med. fast action one peice pole? I favor St.Croix poles and I am not a big fan of cork handles but the reviews Ive read are promising and with the sales and extra points bps is offering I wanted to see if anyone was using this combo or the Extreme rods? and how they liked them.

I don't have the same reel but do have 5 extreme rods and like them.

I have a couple of revos on bps extreme rods. Love the rods as much as any Ive ever had

Only have 1 of those rods but it is a very good rod.

sounds good, do you guys like the handles of the extremes? or isnt there much noticable difference
