Well as usual I have to check out all the reviews & reports to see what every thinks of the 2 rods (Greenwater & E6X's) so I spent a good hour and half reading reviews and to be honest with you I came away a little bit shocked.

There were TONS of fisherman who stated that they liked the St. Croix Avid Inshore over the Greenwater which really surprised me as the G. Loomis are quite a bit more $$. It wasn't just a few but many and the Avids are what I am already using. Huh ???? Still reading reviews and next looking at the E6X's. Don't get me wrong, tons loved them. I find it kinda odd that some said they were "more sensetive" and other stated the opposite, and .... some said lighter and others said opposite. I guess I need to put one in my hands.
Today I'll spend a few hours on the E6X's to see what I can see.

thanks all for your input..... will keep you posted on progress.
