I used a 9' 6wgt.w/8lb tippet,for king salmon on the great lakes tribs for 18yrs. all the guides thought i was crazy ! that rod landed close to a thousand fish from 15-35lbs. the secret is the amazing flex to this med action rod and a tribute to the toughness built into it. i have seen hundreds of $400.00 fast action, thin walled rods shattered on these fish.

price,sensitive, and roll casts like a dream.

you could pay more for another rod and get less.

For the dollars spent the Pro Graphite rod is top notch. Those kids at St.croix have done a good job. They put decent components on a good blank for an outstanding price and they still offer the lifetime warranty. From pansize trout to 12lb. silver salmon this rod can do it all.

Great if you can remember what central time is.
