I have two examples of Fiskar II 511, one green front cover, one black front cover. The green front cover 511 has been on a Garcia "Ozark Lakes" 5' 6'' spinning rod and the black front cover Fiskar 511 will be on a Berkely "Lightning Rod" 6' 6" spinning rod by next spring. The Fiskar reels are a bit awkward to use, needing two hands to cast, but they're fun to fish with.
