I'm thinking of wrapping a 9' 6 wt. four piece, and I'm wondering if any the group have fished this rod, and can give me a review.
Thanks, Jack

Not that one specifically - but in general the RF2 blanks are pretty nice and often overlooked - same with the T2's.

Thanks - Marc

Keep it simple - that's all I can handle!

I have experience with the Qucklines, and they are very good blanks. But if you want a more traditional action, Rainforest sounds right.

Like Michael said, hard to review without a reference point, ever fished any of the Rainshadow fly rods? Similar to the RX7 blanks.
