Default What St. Croix should I add next?

Well I finally broke my last Bass Pro Shop rod today pulling in a 5 pounder. So I'm headed to Bass Pro tomorrow to purchase my second St. Croix. Currently I have a 7' Medium Premier Series/Fast Action. I'm just looking for suggestions on what length and action I should purchase..... I also have a baitcaster which I use primarily for spinner and buzz baits. I would love to have a rod for plastics, crankbaits and spinnerbaits. What do ya'll think??

Depends on your bank account LOL

This is actually great rod for $90 for cranking. Go to the rod slector section at www.stcroixrods.com and select the menu's for what you are looking for. Spinning/Baitcasting etc... For a Worm rod I would go with a 7'MH, and fast action. Take a look, but if you want a AWESOME rod, the Legend series is pretty tough to beat IMHO. I use a Legend 7' Heavy Fast action for most all of my Pitching. However the checkbook needs to be stout to buy that rod. If you aren't willing to pay that much, then either of the Premier or Avid series are both good products. I reccomend all of them. I use a Premier 6'6" MH, Fast Spinning rod for my fluking, and weightless plastics.

So here is what I am thinking...I'll use the St. Croix I have now for plastics...tubes, tiki sticks etc... I'll purchase a 7' Premier Medium Heavy for my cranks. Or do I have that switched around?? Thanks for the help!

Use the Med for your cranks, and get a MH Fast action for your plastics, and a all around good rod. Buy your next one, with a specific purpose, ie a c-rig, or spinnerbait/buzzbait rod.

I posted this already, guess it didn't take lol
