One man's opinion...I have both and prefer the BnM poles....However, if you don't have time to go to the gym take the WMs fishing... You can get a work out & fish at the same time....As you said::BEAST:::
I do think the WM rods are well made...Mine are IM8 with plenty of eyes..Never figured out why they don't have replacement tips....
I'm not saying they are the same blank but the number of eyes has nothing to do with the blank...You can put as many or as few as you want on a blank...
