shaggydog Posted February 14, 2016 Posted February 14, 2016 Get em before there gone. Cant beat it for the price. Quote
Super User Goose52 Posted February 14, 2016 Super User Posted February 14, 2016 .....and you saw the bargain prices where? Some folks might be interested in that info... For those that missed the news on the first go-around last year, the Rage rods have been on closeout in the St. Croix bargain room for months. $89 with free shipping - a good deal indeed. I got two Rage rods for that price last August. They still have a fair selection of casting rods left but the spinning rod selection is down to two models. FWIW 1 Quote
Super User Scott F Posted February 14, 2016 Super User Posted February 14, 2016 Last spring, I bought 3 Rage rods for $200 while I was at the St Croix outlet store in Park Falls WI. Quote
Super User MIbassyaker Posted February 14, 2016 Super User Posted February 14, 2016 I bought one from the Bargain Room on the St. Croix website at that price a few months ago too, but then saw somewhere that you can get an even better deal on multiple rods if you call. Quote

Good to know about the multiple rod deal. I'm personally just about "Raged-Out" now but other folks could get a good deal... 1 Quote
blckshirt98 Posted February 14, 2016 Posted February 14, 2016 Cabela's recently listed the St Croix clearance rods in their Bargain Room, but the prices aren't $89 flat on all models if you bought directly through St. Croix, they start at $89 and go up depending on Rage model. Quote
Super User ww2farmer Posted February 15, 2016 Super User Posted February 15, 2016 Story time......................back when my rod arsenal was all St Croix rods, I had a couple Rage's (along with Mojo's. LTB's, and Avid's) fast forward a few years, and getting into custom rods, I liked the reel seat and guides on the Rage so much, that I have my custom casting rods built with those same Pac-bay minima guides and minima reel seats. the handles however, not a fan, and I have my builder use split cork grips/no fore grip, shaped and contoured like the 2nd generation split grip LTB rods.

Super User Jrob78 Posted February 15, 2016 Super User Posted February 15, 2016 I bought a casting and a spinning for $89 each when they first went on sale back in the summer. Both rods still have the tags on them but it was too good to pass up. Quote
Super User A-Jay Posted February 15, 2016 Super User Posted February 15, 2016 You guys are not helping here ~ at all. The RC76MHMF 7'6" Med-Heavy Power Mod-Fast Action 12-25# 3/4-1 1/4 has been screaming "Buy Me" ever since St Croix started this sale. Well, I Just Couldn't Take It anymore . . . . The $89 bucks and free shipping was TOO MUCH ! They even threw in a Free Hat - I think it was the hat that actually did it. A-Jay 4 Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted February 15, 2016 Super User Posted February 15, 2016 Well, I wish Big O would respond. I think this might be the ONLY rod he owns, but he owns a few! 2 Quote
kingmotorboat Posted February 15, 2016 Posted February 15, 2016 Gotta wait til pay day to order one grrrrrrr hopefully the 7'1 medium fast casting is still there for soft plastics. Broke my uman black this weekend and I'm bailing on that company Quote

A-Jay I bought that rod in August and used it quite a bit in the late summer and fall. Seems to work, catches fish. It fishes exceptionally well at the heavier end of its weight range and handles this bait (which I think you will recognize) with no problems... 16 minutes ago, roadwarrior said: Well, I wish Big O would respond.

You are probably right. Big O is a tall man and I am a little "height challenged". Quote

cbass12 Posted February 18, 2016 Posted February 18, 2016 You guys are killing me!! I may be getting a couple of them today, we'll see if they still have the discount for multiple rods when I call later. 1 Quote
Super User Choporoz Posted February 18, 2016 Super User Posted February 18, 2016 I tried to get the multiple rod discount with different rods and was rejected. I was buying a Mojo glass and a second Rage, and was told 'no dice'. But, I think the original poster of that deal said it was for two Rages, so its certainly worth asking. Quote
faygo1979 Posted February 18, 2016 Posted February 18, 2016 I bought one last fall. It is sensitive but heavier then I expected. Love the handle and hate the guides. for 89 it is a good deal But I was more impressed with the new Mojo rods I checked out at BPS Quote

cbass12 Posted February 18, 2016 Posted February 18, 2016 I just called and ordered the 6'8" MXF and the 7'1" MHXF. You have to call the retail store, and the rods are $50 a piece with $10 shipping up to 5 rods. My total was $110!!!!!!!!!!!! 6 Quote
