I've got one (a 12' TFO 12wt) and I'm actually buying another one this week (14'). Got the bug for them at the casting day after playing with Leon's 15' beast.

I hope so: a rod that doesn't catch would piss me off ...

My mate Mike Bishop is over here with his Method switch rod.
Unfortunately I think he'll be up in Exmouth at the time of the next meeting but I'd say he'd probably be happy to chat about set ups & strategies if anyone is interested.
Let me know if anyone is keen & I'll see when might be free.

Definitely keen to meet up with him. If it needs to be an evening before or after the meeting, that's fine by me. Even a weekend afternoon ...
