I am looking to purchase a new rod. I have been casting the St. Croix 13' 7/8 for about a year and a half now. I like the overall feel of the rod. As my casting progresses however, I feel that a bit more power would be nice.
I have been using a Windcutter interchangeable tip line (7/8/9 and 8/9/10) and have found it to be just right for the fishing that I do. I use the floating , intermediate, and type 3 tips most often. I use the type 6 tip during periods of high water. At this point in my casting career my most used casts are the snap-t and the double spey.
I have narrowed my choices down to the CND custom series and the Fly Logic rods.
I have not yet had oppurtunity to cast the CND customs, but by reputation they seem worthy of serious consideration. I have heard that they perform well with a wide variety of casting styles and lines.
I have cast the Fly Logic rods, but it has been a while...I remember them having a traditional feel (which I like) but with more reserve power and a faster tip than the St. Croix. Also, I know that this line of rods was designed using the Windcutter, my line of choice. Seems like a good bet to me.
For those of you familiar with these rods, I would greatly appreciate your thoughts on which rod you think would suit me better based on the above information.
Thanks for your help.
