The Emma AGS is from a different world.
Haven't tried the high end Sephia, but I heard it's amazing.
But I know you two are more Daiwa guys than Shimano, haha.

There are few high-end EGI rods that just look incredible, a real attention to detail.
I can't say I've seen either in person, but from online photo yeah - they're dang nice.
Yeah I've got some bias, but I've also had zero experience using high-end shimano gear. I actually only own two fishing rods. x)
The emeraldas and a td zero.

The ML size is a lot more versatile if using just the one outfit. Plus it's got a nice taper to it.
AGS can get expensive if you don't look after, guides are like 70 bucks each.
Will need to update the reel too then, sighhh!!!!!
