Shimano crucial or compre

[d-camarena]

Hey, quick questions for you guys. 

I have a couple crucial that i love. Im looking into getting a 7'1 or 7'3 medium extra fast rod.

Im leaning towards the crucial since ive never had a compre. But i can maybe save some money if i get the compre instead. 

I can get the crucial for 155 new, or i can get the compre for 70 new. Is the extra money worth it. Unfortunetly no tackle store near me has the compre in stock so i can feel it. Thanks guys

I've had both and while the Compre is a great rod I feel the Crucial is best if your rig will need great sensitivity. The Compre is great no doubt, but the Crucial is just a bit better. But man it's 1/2 the cost. I'd almost be inclined to go with the Compre unless you have pretty disposable finances for the purchase.

The Crucial is a better rod than the Compre, actually the Compre is one step below the Crucial in the line up.
