St Croix Rods

Every fisherman's rod arsenal has some dogs and some real gems, and to be real honest, I have yet to see the difference in basic spinning rod performance. I have an Ugly Stick and a hand-made beauty, both about 7 feet, medium action and the really do behave about the same - only time will tell if the eyes and handles hold up better then the other. But there are some nice rods out there that really do feel nice and have specific uses - like a 3 peice Saltwater spinning rod from St. Croix. This is a great travel or keep in the car rod to go with a nice reel and a bag of must have plugs. It has a great case and holds together under intense casting - that you cannot find in Walmart.
