I have a new and unused 73S. I can tell you it’s top notch. Going to Florida in a couple of weeks and hoping to get some bend in it! I’m not sure what I’m going to pair it with and agree it’s a bit of a range. I just got several 24 Certates for land based fishing and thinking about pairing it with the 5000. I’ll let you know what I decide on and hopefully have some good pics….
