Help with Musky rod

[Medicine Man]

The Shimano's are good rods but if you are trying to get the best rod for both scenerios look at the St Croix 8ft Premiers. If you are fishing out of a low profile boat and want to throw heavy jerkbaits a 7 or 7ft 6 will work well.

I would definitly go with a 7' or longer. I have several of the Compre's and one Pete Mania. For lower end rods, both are very good choices.

You'll love that C4. I have one on a BPS 7' heavy action and plan to up that to a 7' compre or st croix soon. haven't had any trouble out of the BPS so far though and for the money ($30) if I snap it off in the truck bed then I haven't lost much. (Im rough on rods)

Shimano also makes a Sojourn muskie rod you can get for about $45 and i think the convergence starts at around $60 if you dont want to spring for the $100 plus compre or more than that for a good st croix

Have had great luck w/St Croix Premiers. The PM76MHF is one of my "must haves." The PM70MHF has same specs in slightly shorter rod.
