For the price range of the Ugly Stick, I find the Berkely Lightening Rod, to be more sensitive, and has a lot faster action (more back-bone) !

St.Croix Triumph
Thanks for all the responses guys! i went to the fishing show looking to buy a $50 rod and ended up spending a little more. I was at the counter with my Mojo Bass but it was not a 2 pc so I started to second guess.....nice rod but I love the compact 2 pc design. So I bought the St.Croix Triumph (6'6" Medium Fast). Nice feel and the price was right $70
Cheers!

Happy Fishing
Good choice for a rod and happy fishing with it.
I am considering a Mojo Bass, but can't decide which model to buy. As an angler with a couple of one piece rods, they a great to fish with, but a pain to transport, so maybe a Triumph for me as well.
Anyway great fishing,
Jim

I was just going to chime in again and suggest the Mojo Bass but I see your a step ahead.

Has too much time on their hands
I think the compre is ok. IMO, the best rods are made by rod companies, ie sage, loomis, St. Croix etc vs a rod and reel company. But which rod is "better" is a personal choice. I think my rods are best, becuase they suit my needs. I also have a garage and basement full of rods, and finally settled on the ones that are best for my needs.

Just bought a new 1 piece mojo st.croix 7ft (it looks and feels amazing) and paired it with a new stradic 2500.. Cant believe how light the rod is!! 3.9oz wow. For the price you cant go wrong hopefully it last as long as my 5 year old shimao convergence, i have never had a St. croix before.
