I've got two on the way that I'm getting in exchange for a couple Rage rods that had messed up reel seats, 7'1" MH/F and 7'6" MH/MF. Hoping to get them today. As long as I get them by Friday I'll be able to put them to the test on Saturday. I'll post a review as soon as I do.
Another reason to buy St Croix... I have had to send in several Rage casting rods recently due to the reel seat and locking nut failing. I got frustrated with them and asked Megan in customer service if I could exchange them for the new Mojo's, and she said "no problem" and also offered to waive the return shipping. So I'm getting two new rods for only $15 worth of shipping. Hopefully I like the new Mojo as well as I think I will. Great company!!!!
The new Mojo is going to have the SCIII blank, and will have some newer guides. This is their replacement for the Rage (according to who I talked to at SC) and will start at $120.
I've seen way too many 8+ pound fish kept out there. Fish that big aren't even that good to eat. For me there's not much better than a bunch of 16"-17" wally's.
I've caught one Walleye in that size class, was when I was in the academy in Hutchison. Went to Cheney several evenings after class, caught one that easily went 7 pounds and maybe more on a chartreuse 3" grub. Hopefully she's still swimming around out there. Really wish I had taken a picture or at least had a scale/tape to measure her.
I've seen 10+ pound fish in the shallow water when I wade for them during the spawn. Had one swim in between my legs a couple years ago that about gave me a heart attack.
The new line of Mojo's has a 6'10" ML/XF spinning rod, I would definitely recommend that for drop shotting. Seaguar Red Label is a decent floro, Sunline Super Floro has been good to me as well. Never used their floroucarbon, but P-Line is supposed to be pretty good.
I've been looking forward to getting one. I actually have a rage that has a semi-loose reel nut, comes loose sometimes when I set the hook. I've been sitting on it, waiting until now to send it in and exchange it for one of these new Mojos. I guess it's about time!!
And the old Mojos are now in the bargain room for $89....seems like they should be cheaper considering how much they discounted the Rage series.
