I've bought 2 of them of the last 2 years and finally got to use them this fall and they are great. I have a 9.1 and a 5.5 and they are both as smooth as can be. I was leary about the T-Wing when I ordered it but it works great. They're both mounted to St Croix rods. The 9.1 is on a frog rod with 40lb braided and the 5.5 is on a sprinnerbait rod with 16lb (I think) fluorocarbon. I also got a Plano A-series duffle and it's very nice also. So there it is, just a short review to say it preformed as expected.
