I want a crankbait rod for this early fall transition. Im stuck between two different models of mojo bass rods. Im stuck between the Crankbait (MBC70MHM) and the Crankster (MBGC74MM) this one is a glass rod. Just want to make the right decision here. Please Advise!

I had mbc70mhm...it was ok.

I liked the premier better in a 7MHM...sold the mojo and kept the premier

My buddy has the mojo now and he loves it. I did get to fish the glass mojo once...i like it better than the graphite one but once again not as much as my premier

It depends on what kind of cranks you are going to use, if you are running square bills and other shallow cranks like the DT-6 and the DT-10 then the 7'MHM graphite rod will be a better option as the added feel will help when banging into cover. If you are going to run primarily DT-6 down to a DT-14 with little or no shallow diving baits then the glass rod will be better. The glass rod is longer with a longer handle that is designed to give you a longer cast, a factor when running deeper diving baits. You don't need to be running DT baits either, I use those to demonstrate depth so it gives you perspective on the baits you want to run. The graphite model is shorter, weighs less and has a shorter handle which will be good for one handed roll cast if using square bills or other shallow divers and you are casting to a spot versus an area, and the graphite model is also going to let you feel the bait better allowing you to walk a bait through cover a little better. So decide what kind of cranks you are going to use primarily, the graphite model can handle 14' to 16' diving baits but not as easily so if those are going to be used most of the time then go for glass, if you are going to use those baits once in awhile and primarily use shallow stuff then go for graphite, that is what I would do.

The mojo glass crankster is the only st croix I have left.  I used to have a mojo bass worm/jig rod, but I sold it because I didn't like it.  The mojo glass is actually my favorite crank bait rod and it is fairly light and sensitive for a glass rod.  I use it for shallow to medium depth cranks, squarebills and lipless in open water.  I like this rod because of it's parabolic action and it slings the lures.  I also like the fact that I could bounce the lures off cover and the soft tip wouldn't get me hung up as easily.  The parabolic action always pinned the fish just right and my hook up ratio is amazing.  I had a moderate action graphite before this and seemed to lose fish after fish. 

Like smalljaw said, your choice is going to depend on the baits you're wanting to fish. 

If you are fishing shallow get the graphite, it it's deep, get a glass rod. I have a mojo crankster and I'm looking to get rid of it if you are interested, it's the medium one. I found the medium to be a bit light for heavier cranks, I never really found the rods sweet spot.
