Narcodog, what is the listed weight on the rod? Fenwick placed three different weights on these through the production years...2 1/2 oz, 3 oz and 3 1/8 oz. I have an L (downlocker) and and an M (slide bands), both listed at 3 1/8 oz...actual weights are very close to that.
I agree with
east branch kids description of these rods...
I bid $15 on the L with the Diawa reel (pictured) at a local auction (pick up only). Got a notification that I won...paid through PayPal and picked it up. It was in good condition...placed the reel on the big site and sold it for $25 (free shipping)...about 30 days later I noticed the local auction credited me the $15 back...called them to let them know and they said they'd take care of it...another 30 days and nothing...called them again, and still nothing...gave up....so, in the end they paid me a few bucks to take the FF755 off their hands...they are nice rods...
