Jburge,
Intriguing method.
After reading through the site, I think it would be a very effective technique on any smaller stream. I can even envision where it might work on some larger waters too...czech nymphing at it's most refined, maybe?
In any event, at $130 to $180 for a rod, they aren't all that expensive. It's obvious, though, that you don't have to have their proprietary rods to use the technique. Those 'crappie poles' might be a bit longer to pack, but it would certainly be cheaper to 'try' the technique with. If you like it, then you could spring for the 'real thing'.
I might just have to get one of those poles and give it a try on the Animas in Durango next summer...the longer reach would let me drop nymphs into some areas I couldn't reach this past season...
