    Price – $150 or best offer

    This is a custom built rod that I made for myself, it has seen water maybe 10 days total and is in great shape.
    -Rod: St. Croix Avid 6’3″ Medium, X-Fast
    -Handle: 12″ Custom, full cork Tennessee handle made with top end cork rings from Thorne Bros
    -Guides – Fuji down to size 5 running guides (large micro guide)
    -Guide Wrap Color: Dark green (hard to see in picture but pops out in the sun)

    I am only selling because I don’t get much use out of it and am selling a few rods to build more (it’s an addiction…). This rod retails for $190 and a custom would be well over $250 and likely close to $300.

    Please no low ball offers.

    Scratcher – this is a very sensitive rod and would be a great rod for vertical jigging. It is an identical blank to the Avid series you can buy off the shelf.

    It is rod only but if your interested in the reel (Shimano Sedona 1000) we could look at working on a deal for that as well.

    I am located in St. Paul.

    Not interested but thought Scratcher might like some insight from a non-seller. The avid series is often said to be the series where St.Croix really starts to shine and is in many conversations of most bang for your buck. The avid blanks are really sensitive and light for their price point.

    Does the $130 price come with the reel? If so I’m interested. I work in St. Paul and could meet for pick up. Send me a PM.

    Hi Bp – price is for the rod only. I’d be willing to sell the combo and would work with you in pricing.
