Thanks! I bought it new, but I don’t think it’s the newest version with the harder anodization or whatever. It’s kind of a blued-steel color, looks pretty nice with the blue Xi2. I was thinking of holding out for the harder finish, but the fly shop gave me such a great deal I couldn’t pass! I liked my Cimarron5, but I’m looking forward to fishing with the true large arbor.
Not sure when you are headed to Panama City, but have a great trip and bring us back a good report!!
