I need some help replacing old faithful..... Believe it or not, I've been fishing the same LCI rod for almost 20 years... I'm looking at these rods, any input would be great! And it's gonna be used 99% of the time for worms & Senkos...

1- Crucial CRC66MH

2- Compre CPC66MHB

3- St.Croix PC66MF

I'm really leaning towards the Shimanos. That lifetime warranty really appeals to me.

Now an Okuma question... Who here has used the EVx series rods? The EVx-C-661MH really impressed me for the price.  

Even though my Loomis is still catching fish after all this time, I just cant spend that kind of $ on a new Loomis. I can get 2 or even 3 or more of the above rods for the same price. I don't fish tourneys, I just like to fish....

Thanks in advance for the help!

I have never fished a Crucial...but love my Compre and my St Croix

I have both St Croix Premier and Shimano Crucial rods. I like them both alot. If making the choice you have presented I would probably give a small edge to the Crucial.

I would say the Crucial.  It's a great rod for the money and you can't beat the warranty.

St.Croix Premier
