Matthew Veillion Posted December 30, 2012 Posted December 30, 2012 The mediums feel like medium heavys so i got a medium i really like it but i havent fished with it yet. Quote
Super User ww2farmer Posted December 30, 2012 Super User Posted December 30, 2012 Fine rod, I have quite a few St Croix's and am a big fan. Be prepared for countless posts from every expert one here why x,y or z brand of $100 rod is better, but truth be told, most all the rods out there in the $100 range are pretty equal. Some are lighter, some are heavier, some have more "bling", IMHO though, you won't find a better built rod in the $100 range. St Croix has very few QC issues and puts out quality products in both there USA and imported rods. Now as far how the rod will fish....St Croix medium power rods are a little more "powerfull" than most other brands labled mediums. They make excellant "all purpose" rods. Use the lure weight and line size recomendations to guide you on what to throw with that rod and it will do many things well for you. I have use braid on all my rods for several years now and the guides are as good as new, so you shouldn't worry about any issues there.My oldest Mojo is going on it's 4th season of use, and I use that rod almost every day out on the water, well over 100 times a year. The finish is durable, and, also just MHO, St Croix has and continues to use the nicest cork in the business. Sensitivity will be more than enough for reaction baits, and be very good for "feel" baits........no not as good as rods further up the line, but on par with most, and exceeding some rods at that price point.

Super User aavery2 Posted December 30, 2012 Super User Posted December 30, 2012 I agree the build quality of the Mojo is equal or better than a majority of the other rods in it's class. I have always felt that these rods make much better moving bait type rods, then bottom contact type rods. Quote

I don't like it for bottom contact presentations. Quote
Matthew Veillion Posted December 30, 2012 Author Posted December 30, 2012 The medium heavy felt way too heavy somewhat like a heavy Quote
Super User flyfisher Posted December 30, 2012 Super User Posted December 30, 2012 It is a good rod and you will be happy with it i am sure. I don't feel the spinning rods are more powerful than their ratings as compared to other rods i have owned. Now their baitcasters i can say do feel a little heavier as compared to other rods. I like my 7' MF for shaky heads and also for weightless plastics. Quote
