I've had a 2-piece 10 foot St. Croix for many years and I really like the action and casting distance I get. It's married to a Penn 6500. However, I just don't like 2-piece rods. After a few really hard casts, the ferrel starts to twist. All of the guides are on side so it's not horrible, just irritating. I'm thinking about just epoxying the two pieces together.

	Three-fourths of the Earth's surface is water, and one-fourth is land. It is quite clear that the good Lord intended us to spend triple the amount of time fishing as taking care of the lawn.
