Rated 4 out of 5Â by creepingdoom quality rod
I use this rod for striper fishing, surf and on a boat. I have an 8' Med-Heavy single piece. Really good quality rod. Feels well balanced I use a Shimano 8000 bait runner with it. Not a fan of 2piece surf rods that is why I spent the money for this one. Gave it a 4 because of price. There are good quality rods that are single piece and two piece for much less. Shouldn't be so expensive becuase of the name. I do like the rod though.

Rated 5 out of 5Â by TRIMAN Nice value in a rod
I have a 7' 6" MLF and 7MF. Have used both rods for flats fishing and they perfom well. The fast action is a little light but it still is a very nice rob for the money. Over all a great rod for the $$$

Rated 5 out of 5Â by FloridaSportsman4 Best rod ive bought yet
The St. Croix tidemaster 7'0 is the best rod purchase ive made yet. The day after i bought it, i pulled in a nice 27" Redfish and the amazing strength and backbone these rods have is unbelievable. I love this rod! I put a Stradic 4000 reel on it.

Great rod, plenty of backbone for big bull reds yet sensitive enough for specks. There's a reason they call them "The Best Rods On Earth"!

make sure you throw your bait on sands spot on the flats or sandy spot near a drop off or rocks let is sink all the way to the bottom and twitch it a littleAnswers
A:Â
For the most part, yes. Most all high end, high quality rods will be constructed with the intention of resisting the elements. However, it doesn't matter whether your rod is $400.00, or $40.00, you still need to practice good maintenance. That means washing down your rod with fresh water every time you come off the water.

Yes, this is a corrosion resistance rod.Batson Forecast® hard aluminum-oxide guides with 316 stainles-steel frames for dramatically improved corrosion resistance compared to 304 stainless-steel frames.

Choose a reel that feels good to you. There are so many options that go well with just about any rod. Go with the brands you like the most. For salt water try to stick with a reel of larger size than fresh water. Like a okuma trio s40. Not too small or too large. should be about the right size and wieght for any type of fishing.A:Â
Try a Stradic 4000 FJ. Thats what i got on my tidemaster.Answers
A:Â
I do not believe it does. If you are interested in a traveling rod and want a St. Croix check out their web sight. They make quality rods and have many to choose from.Details:Â
I usually catch at the biggest a 40 inch snook, some reds, keeper trout and a few tarpon i was wondering what size and strength should i get?Answers
A:Â
The TIS76MF is my goto in the Tidemaster series for inshore, I use the TIS80HF for big snook an reds , free lining pins , pogy's ,finger mullet, bucktails up to 2oz and swimbaits up to 2oz also.A:Â
i think for a big 40 inch fish you should get the MH 7' 6" 1 piece it will do the work on everything inshore fishing you'll see, just give it a try.Details:Â
How does the 7'6" mh model compare w/ a shimano calcutta 7'6" mh spinning rod? i.e. strength ,sensitivity,durability,value,etc.?Answers
A:Â
The Tidemaster is one of the best rods I have used. I fish up to 8 of these on my boat on any given day, and there is no rod with the backbone and sensitivity of these St Croix rods.A:Â
I have owned the calcutta and it snapped after a few months of fishing in the gulf...never had a problem with st. croix..its seems to have more grunt to it. This has pulled in a 4 foot black tip with a penn conquer with 20# powerpro, the guides are in perfect condition and the braid has never even maked the guides. this was the best 170$ i ever spent on a rod! i highly reccomend you get it...best wishes and tight lines !-Chris
