  1. If your anywhere near the Wheeling Cabelas,Yesterday they had a bunch of Okuma Scott Martin swimbait rods in the bargain cave.
  2. St Croix still has Rage and Avid Neo rods for 89$ plus free shipping.
  3. Cabelas has coupons for 25$ off any purchase over 100$.You could get a Mojo.
  4. Once upon a time the internet didn't exist.You figured out things by doing them.
  5. The Mojo would be a solid choice,I have the 6'8" MXF and the 6'10 MLXF.Great sticks for the $
  6. Still in demand,I bought a Rage for $50 and and I was offered $100 for it.Ended up selling to him for $60 and a bag of Venom tubes.
  7. I'm a 100% Shimano guy,IMO Pluegers feel cheap and ready to fall apart,Diawas are a little better but still will always be a step below Shimanos,Quantums are junk and I'll never own one.
  8. I also had a Sidestab 1500,Bought it in 1992 and it finally died last year.I loved that reel.
  9. The Symetre is 69.99 at Cabelas.
  10. You can buy a split grip Premier from Cabelas,I have a 6'6"M spinning that I think is pretty sweet.I also have two gen 2 Mojos.A 6'10"ML and a 6'8"MXF.Both are really nice rods.
  11. Small fish I know ,But just a pic of the Stradic and the Villian
  12. My current Spinning rod lineup: Gen 2 Mojo 6'8'MXF Gen 2 Mojo 6'10' MLXF G Loomis E6X 7'1" 852S JWR Gen 1 Abu Villian 6'9" ML Premier 6'6' MF Split Grip The new Mojos in my opinion are lights out,Great rods for the price.WPCfishing is right though,Hold the Avid or the Avid X and there is a difference. My G Loomis is also awesome,I really enjoy fishing with it.Light,Responsive and for $144 at Field and Stream a no brainer The Abu Villian is probably my favorite stick.Paired with a Stradic FJ 2500,It's well balanced and ultra sensitive. My Premier is the St Croix/Cabelas exclusive that I bought last year.Well balanced,well built and just a fantastic rod. You really can't go wrong with any of the above rods,It's up to you and your wallet and the deals you can find.
  13. I think the Stradic FJ is one of the best reels ever made
  14. I picked up a E6X 852S JWR 7'1" at a Field And Stream store a few hours ago.$154.00
  15. I have a gen one 6'9" ML Villian that I use all the time.Paired with a Stradic FJ 2500,It's a sweet setup
  16. I think my new gen Mojo for $120 is a lot of rod for the money.
  17. St Croix has Triumph rods for 60$ plus free shipping
  18. St Croix has Triumph rods for 60$ plus free shipping.
  19. I love bass fishing,But I also chase catfish when I can.Today in the Miami Valley we had plenty of rain.I decided to hit a local lowhead dam on the Great Miami.I used an old Abu Super Seven and a Shimano Solstace 2500.My Shimano was soaked in rain for over three hours and did not bind at all.I'm not saying Shimanos won't bind but I own 7 and have never had a problem
  20. I use Power Pro and love it
  21. I own a Stradic FJ and a Saros FA,With decent maintenance the only reels I'll ever need
  22. I have ordered rods from St Croix and Tackle Warehouse.Both arrived expertly packed in thick a** cardboard tubes.
  23. I own 6 St Croix rods,3 old Mojos,1 new Mojo,1 Avid Neo and a Premier.I really enjoy fishing with all my St Croixs and I'm looking forward to moving up to the Avid and Legend Bass series.
  24. I bought the new Mojo 6'10" MLXF and I really like it.I use it for tubes,wacky and small jerkbaits.
