Has anyone used these rods in anger for any length of time?

Some of these retractables can be a bit pokey.

These any good?

I have some 3.25lbs 10ft and they are not too pokey and still responsive enough for pinging light leads with accuracy.
9 footers will be bit more pokey at shorter lengths with same test. Theres hardly any difference in collapsed length.

I have the 10ft 3.5lb. Have been using them all year with the Onyx mini pit reels. I have found them nice to use. Have been fishing up to 80 yards with them and have been pinging out small PVA solid bags. Nice to play fish on. I've had low doubles up to 39lb on them this season.
Are you sure?
