I bought a North Fork last year for $160 and it is ok..  I've had a couple eyelet casing come loose but they pop back in.  All in all I still like my Berkley over my North Fork and Lami

Rainshadows blanks are sweet.

IMHO the 2-1141's I have from Rainshadow are twice the rods my Loomis 1141 GLX are.

I would call Chris Hendershot in Sequim and have him custom wrap a North Fork or Rainshadow blank.

Cheaper and twice the set-up.
Let me know if your interested and I will get you his info.
