Here's the video of my first casting session in the park with it.

That line is an Airflo Ridge GT WF12I, but like the other Epics, it is not likely to be terribly sensitive to any particular line.

They're a nice rod. I fished with Mark Bantich at the weekend and he christened his new home-built Boca Grande on a nice golden trevally on a floating crab.
