Second guessing a rod purchase, opinions sought

Featured Replies

I bought a St. Croix muskie rod to use for muskie fishing, XL glides and cranks.  It's my first and probably only muskie rod and it'll end up pressed into service whenever I need a broomstick.  

 

Here are the spec:

 

St. Croix Legend Tournament Musky Casting Rod Split Cork 8'3" Heavy Lipstick II | LMTSC83HMF

 

Pieces: 1 | Length: 8’3” | Power: Heavy | Action: Moderate Fast | Line Weight (lb): 65-80 | Lure Weight (oz): 3/4 - 4oz. | Handle: 4 | Technique: Lipstick II | MPN: LMTSC83HMF

 

 

 

Should I keep it?  It was 50% off.

One of the nice things I've found about St Croix rods is the warranty is transferrable so even if you already registered it someone else could register it later and get most of the warranty on it. I bring that up because as it turns out I've had 0 issues selling any St Croix rod on FB marketplace. I have sold a few either because I leveled up to one of their higher rods or tried one out that just wasn't for me, but have not had any issue selling one relatively quickly. So my vote would be if you got it for 50% off wait until they aren't on sale then give someone about the same price maybe a bit less and go get what you really want.
