Larry,

I'd continue to shop around for the 6wt XP.

I was going to town to have lunch with my bride, so I stopped to
chat with my fly shop buddy. Turns out he had still had a "demo" 9.5 ft
6wt XP that is now in my truck and will visit Lake Alpine in the AM to
catch some of those big Alper's planters up there.

Assuming I like the rod, in real world use, I'll buy it for a price that
makes even me grin.

Note: It casts well in my yard, but, alas, I fear that I am the weak link
not my rod. My arms and hands stop doing the "right stuff at the right
time" before the rod seems over burdened. I'm not sure any price is a
good one if just casting poorly but with a different rod is all I'm buying.
