I am relatively new to C-Rigging (and bass fishing all toghether)and I started out using a Skeet Reese 7'6" MH rod with micro guides. The first trip I took it out with a guide, hooked into a nice LM and "snap", rod broke....I then bought an Abu Garcia Vendetta and havent had any problems and have landed alot of fish while c-rigging with it. The guide I use reccomends all star rods....anyone have experience with those?

I've good things about St. Croix. What about the Mojo Cast 7'MH? That's more in my price range and it looks like it has the TX rig style hook keeper underneath the rod which I like.

Texas Sidewinder Pro XSW782 custom rod. It is a Med. Power rod (Rainshadow RX8 blank) with an incredibly fast tip and spiral wrapped guides. I am so nervous about breaking or otherwise damaging my favorite rod because Texas Sidewinder Custom Rods are no longer in business. I usually pair it with my Core 51MG or Antares AR.

St Croix legend bass rods (have 3 of them). Of the three the "teaser" is my favorite one, great for plastics and topwaters.

Its a tie for me, the Dobyns Champion 735C or 736C. The Dobyns DX745C is right behind them. All with full handles.

I didn't say they are not good; I just cant get the blank in any action since shimano bought the company.
Once the G-lomis blanks are gone ther will be no more to the cutom rod builders.
