![]() Hit my favorite stretch of the Passaic today to test my newest rod, a 6 ft 3 inch medium extra fast St. Croix Avid. The weather was horrible, with heavy rain, but the smallies had the feedbag on. I picked up 14 fish, and dropped 3 more. 2 came on a silver phoebe, 2 on a powerteam lures grub in green pumpkin. I was fishing the grub against the current weightless, and the fish were rising to take it from the top. But the biggest producer today was a 5 inch black/blue flake senko fished weightless texas style. They were absolutely crushing it as I drifted it through a fast run. Ten fish taken this way. No huge fish all 10- 14 inches.
The rod performed flawlessly. This is my first rod with an extra fast tip. I can feel every tick of the line. This is gonna be a great plastics rod. Last edited by tjc76; 05-21-2012 at 06:36 PM.. |

![]() I now have eight St Croix Rods, and am going to be purchasing more to replace other mfr's rods. Since I bought my first St. Croix, I haven't bought any other brands. The feel is second to none.

![]() I also fish that area. Except for one 16" Smallie I landed last week, all the ones I've caught in the passed couple weeks have been in that 10"-14" range as well.
