Powernoodles have a much smoother transition to that solid backbone. The meatstick has a super soft tip but then goes quickly into all backbone. They are nice but much more fragile than the Powernoodle...
Here is a picture of a Powernoodle in action by my father...

Thanks

Looks like your dad approves. ;D

Got my rod back on Friday. They just removed some of the rod finish, redid the lettering and put finish over it. I put a dot on the rod to see if they replace the whole deal. Looks as it should now. Thorne reimbursed me for the shipping. Overall I am glad I sent it back.

Now to get the reel made for it. Planning on machining my own out of aluminum.

Glad they took care of you

You might as well make two of the reels while your at it and send me one. ;^)
