[font "Poor Richard"][green][size 3][cool]Hi there mbright - have only one bass rod as most of my stuff is now used for fly fishing. A couple of years ago replaced an aging bait casting setup with a Shimano VCA 6½' 10-17 wt 1/8-3/8. I paired it up with a Shimano Bantam Curado Strens Sensor 200 BSF reel. It works for me. However, I'm sure others will have a different preference. Good luck.[/size][/green][/font]

All my gear bought is shimano now. They give you a lifetime warrenty with out the St.Croix price tag on the rods. I also own that St.Croix rod and have been happy with it.
