| Dude, try various combos w/ various baits and keep meticulous written records as to how each combo reacted w/ their perspective set ups; this is a rare serious straight forward answer, and one that I carefully thoughtout!:O |

| I dont know if you remember, but I have the 7'2" St.Croix matched with the Morrum 6600 and love it!!. I have used it for about everything. I plan to get another just like it.
