Very nice looking fish, any chance of posting a picture of the imitation that caught them.

My Macro is not the best so this is the nearest to the Caenis fly I caught them on.

Watch the forums and ebay carefully and you will pick up these fantastic rods at good prices.

I have a z axis which is lovely. My friend has a 6wt xp and it is honestly the best rod I have cast.

Nice fish mate.

As for the Z-Axis, i can't speak for the single handed version, but i have a 15 foot Z-axis for salmon and i HATE it. I've since got a 15' sage TCR, and now the Z-Axis never sees the light of day. I'd be interested to have a go with the single handed version though.
