I buy this shitty overpriced rod and it eventually breaks so the warranty people can make me sit on hold for 45 minutes to hand up immediately and you have top pay $60 for a warranty claim you can buy a Denali rod for that price which is just as good if not better save your money buy something else.

My 2020 st Croix bass X has probably landed me over 500 bass with no issues at all. It has had zero issues besides some disfigurement of the guides, that I just bent back in place. Last summer I foul hooked a 25+ pound flathead catfish on bass gear and still landed it with this rod and it took zero damage. 10/10 will be buying again.

This rod is made extremely cheap. After only 4 months of owning and using this rod the reel seat and tip of the rod broke. There was nothing more than a tiny amount of glue holding the reel seat on the rod. Save your money and buy something else.

Was looking for a new punch rod and I'm very happy after purchasing this model Bass X rod. Nice, light and has the parabolic bend that I look for in a punch rod.

Bought a bass X medium heavy fast to use as a chatterbait rod after my mojo bass broke after 6 years of slamming bass. Was excited for this rod from my past experience with st croix. But on my second time out the rod snapped in half while casting a 3/8oz chatterbait. Unbelievably disappointed with this rod. Just sent it into warranty and we will see.
