I've keep hearing you guys talk about this rod, and when I saw this on YouTube just now I thought I'd share for any interested parties. (I have no affiliation with St. Croix or the YouTube channel fwiw)

 

This guy is sponsored by St Croix so it's about the most biased review you're ever going to see. He's basically a paid advertiser for strike king and st croix. Not really any different than most of the youtube fishing channels, but these video's should really have some kind of disclaimer. It's more of a commercial than a review. 

It's a nice rod I don't use glass but it's a really nice rod I would love to own. I've read a lot about the rod and feel it's deserving of its award at Icast it's got that old school look to it gotta love it.
