shawnmc Posted September 3, 2009 Posted September 3, 2009 I have the Wacky spinning rod and the Slop and Frog casting rod. Both are very nice for the money. They are well built and I think a nice value. I think you will be happy if you pick them up. Quote

The mojo's have gotten alot of love here, there aren't gonna be the end all, be all rod at under $100 dollars but definitely seem worth the money. Quote
Bob Dole Posted September 3, 2009 Posted September 3, 2009 Are there really benefit to them over the Premier, iirc they are the same blank and guides, or is it just $10 less and s seksy purple color? Quote

Super User Hammer 4 Posted September 3, 2009 Super User Posted September 3, 2009 I hate to be the one to add a negative here, but...yesterday I got to cast the mojo a bit, it was the spinning rod, mf..2 things I didn't care for, 1..the weight, felt heavy compared to my rod, same size and power, next the split grips, just a persoanl thing but they were uncomfotable for me. The mojo bc'r I wasn't impresssed with, took my reel to bps, and the rig just felt heavy, and unbalanced to me. I mounted on a bps extrem finesse, and felt good, same goes for the Rick Clunn rod. So, different strokes, for different folks.. Quote
Stasher1 Posted September 3, 2009 Posted September 3, 2009 Are there really benefit to them over the Premier, iirc they are the same blank and guides, or is it just $10 less and s seksy purple color? No, I think you've pretty much nailed it. The main reasons for their popularity are price, appearance, and the St. Croix name...not their sensitivity, durability, or action. The Triumph and Premier use the same blank, one is slightly more expensive, the other slightly less expensive, but neither sells as well as the Mojo due to the split grip and flashier color. A lot of folks saw an opportunity to own a trick-looking rod from a high-end manufacturer for less than $100 and jumped on them. By now the novelty and "wow factor" has worn off and the real reviews are coming out. They're nothing special, and definitely far from impressive, imho. If you're interested in buying a used one, keep an eye on the Flea Market. Many of those same folks will be ditching their lightly used Mojos for the next big thing...the Vendetta. : Quote

The main reasons for their popularity are price, appearance, and the St. Croix name...not their sensitivity, durability, or action. everything he says is 100% correct rod does not feel right in my hands ill end taking split grip off and make a different rod out of it The Triumph and Premier use the same blank, one is slightly more expensive, the other slightly less expensive, but neither sells as well as the Mojo due to the split grip and flashier color.

sweet daddy Posted September 4, 2009 Posted September 4, 2009 The mojo sucks because I spent more money on a low priced rod, that has a following on here and got out classed. Yeah the split grip sucks, the lack of a fore grip sucks, it looks sexy, oh and they make them in mexico.The mojo sucks = a cb. Quote
Super User Muddy Posted September 4, 2009 Super User Posted September 4, 2009 Well like he said on another thread If you can hold a 12 ounce can or bottle of beer you can fish. Well shut my mouth!!!!!! That there split grip does resemble a Miller, sorry I had the nerve to think you could be wrong sweet daddy Quote
