Montague, like many other bamboo rod factories a lifetime ago, made some good rods, some decent rods, and a lot of lackadaisical rods. Only one way to find out- have a knowledgeable rod guy look at it and tell you (and probably burst your bubble), or fish it and see if it suits you.

The mark of a good fly rod man is even if he has distinct preferences he can pick up a dead stick and cast a fly line with it.
