Hi Liam, don't know that rod. What do you intend on using it for? If the river I would say it's a bit on the small side. A 9ft 6 for a 5 weight would be more suitable.

trions are a model from shakespear,as an chuileog said,bit small for a river but they are pretty good rods.you could have great fun with your rod on small rivers/streams like the philorth  :z13 not really much use on a bigger river
