Rod- for Revo Stx Reel

Featured Replies

hi-

I've heard so much good stuff about the Revo Stx about to purchase one...

Need help in picking out a rod for it in the $75 to $150 range....

I fish with a lot of different stuff so what would you guys recommend for an all around rod for worm, spinnerbait, topwater, fluke, crankbait, frog type fishing??

thanks.... :)

My first choice would be a Carrot Stix 6'9" MH, but if you arent a fan of them, my next choice would be a Kistler magnesium 6'9" MH All purpose rod.

thanks... I will look into both of those....  :)

STX and the Carrot balance together very nicely.

these are some nice rods that are mentioned...  really like the carrot stix and the St. Croix

Not an STX but here's my Premier on the Carrot.

shimano crucial 6-6 med action with 10 lb braid a zoom lizard a owner 4/0  some brush or trees ...ooops im getting carreid away

I have both the carrot stick and the avids, and I would say the  carrot stick is a better rod as far as sensitivity and weight.  The avid is still a good stick but not quite up to the carrot stick IMO.

thanks everybody so far for all the suggestions....

Amazon usually has great prices on Fenwick HMX, HMG & Techna AV. On clearance @ BPS, the Browning Midas is a sweet deal.

i am pleased with my team allstar $109 @ BPS

At first, I put a STX on a Carrott Stix, but later tried the reel on a 7' M Daiwa L&T. Love the pairing.

funny you say that because i have a carrot stix and 2 avids and i think the avids are more sensitive...

Now,  there's a man that knows what he's talkin about. Kistler, IMO is the best rod,  hands down. And I've had/tried just about ALL companies. I also have a carrot stix and it is pretty nice!
