gonna buy a casting rod and start baitcasting. have these options:

Shimano CPC-66MB 1/4-3/4oz 8-17lb 6'6'' 1 IM8 med fast $89.99
St.Croix TRC66MF 1/4-3/4oz 10-17lb 6'6'' 1 IM7 med fast $70.00
Berkley SOC661M 1/4-3/4oz 8-20lb 6'6'' 1 IM7 med medium $69.99

So among the three, anyone can give some inputs if you are using one of them?

[cool] You can't go wrong with a St. Croix.

I have the berkley and love it. St. Croix is also a good choice.

Thanks for the inputs.

I go with the Berkley SOC661M finally.

Feel that the St.Croix TRC66MF is a little bit too stiff for me.

They are all similar quality and would do the job given the price range. I can definitely recommend Shimano reels to go with them. I have Calcuttas and love them.
