Will be used for small t-rigs, wacky rigs, assorted soft plastics, and maybe some small spinnerbaits too. The xf action on the mojo felt really nice in store because it had a soft tip but shut off quickly. I am worried it won't be able to handle the lighter stuff as well since it won't load up as much.

 

Also, St. Croix M power rods seem to have a lot of wobble in them and are not too crisp, but I never tested that when I was in store and held one.

The mojo is certainly not what I'd call a "crisp" rod. They're heavy and dead feeling. I'd go with the *** every time in this instance.

Fishusa has a St Croix Avid 6'8" med xfast rep sample on sale for $135, that'd be even better.
