Anyone running Lamiglas XCC 802/803s ?

Just wondering if any of you guys are using these rods for salmon.  The 8' length seems perfect for kayaks and the 802 looks awesome for springers and/or steelhead, while the 803 really seems like a good fit for fall fish.  About $200 each so a big jump from what I use now (SST, Buzz R IM8). Waste of $$ or good investment (the warranty is a selling point)? Also, when I land salmon it very far from the smooth style I see from of the better salmon guys here - meaning I will beat the tar out of these rods.

Any and all opinions welcome.  Thanks!
