new surf rod?

[stripermaineiac]

from what I'm seeing and hearing be carefull of the St croixs. they sent production of the longer rods over seas. Saw 3 of the newer models and the Mojo's break between the furrell and the ist guide while casting a plug. 2 were using darters,SS an Tatoo the other one of my 3.5 oz needles.Plus the reel seat glue failure problem seems to be back again.

Don't know where you live but if your budget can afford it go over to CMS and have Charlie either build you a 10' Rainshadow or the new lami composite and get the exact rod you want for what you will fish with and where you fish. Expect to pay from $265 to $400 or so.

My brother had an issue with his reel seat on his mojo and returned it for a St. Croix Avid. The first night, the upper grip came unraveled and the reel seat came completely unglued.
