Scientists. Those guys want to take credit for everything. Well, while they're sitting around patting themselves on the back about ibuprofen, we'll keep making the world a better place by developing new rods. Like the Mojo Surf rods. Built from premium SC2 graphite, these bad boys are topped off with specialized, weight-saving surf guides with zirconium ring that sends casts off into the stratosphere. High-performance surf rods at a great value for folks who put it all on the line.

This is an awesome rod for the money. you get a 2 piece with 1 piece feel. light weight and casts great. really well made. If you're going to buy one rod,I highly recommend the Mojo Surf for everyday surf fishing.

It's good

I've used this rod for over a year now, and I do like it a lot. I mostly use it as my bait fishing stick, but have used it for heavier plugs, and metal as well when the surf is rough, and casting distance is a factor. It casts the range good enough, but gets a little soft towards the higher end of the rating... I've thrown 8oz on it before, but I wouldn't lean into the cast as I'd do with lighter loads on there.... That's not really a negative as the baits weight does put it slightly over the rods stated rating. A couole things I didn't like was the fact that purchased the rod as new, used it, and later found the bottom, and top section to have different serial numbers on them, making the great warranty this company offers useless. The different numbers lead me to believe that the rod I recieved may of been a return, a factory mix up, or one of the refurbished rods they sell at a discount. Another thing I noticed was that the reel seat was a little loose, and that it did seem to loosen up on its own even when tightened down before heading out. I have a penn ssv7500, and when a big fish is on, I can feel the reel flexing in the hoods of the reel seat, and that is not a good feeling at all. I ended up having to use hockey tape for added support and security.
Pros
  • One piece feel with a 70/30 split. Throws the range adequately with Plenty of backbone to pull big fish out of heavy current, and rips.
Cons
  • Reel seat loosens up... Seems to hold some reels better than others.

Awesome Rod
August 7, 2022
Amazing rod, strong and confident.

Can cast anything from under 1oz to any huge bait on the market basically.

Pulled in big stripers and big blues.

But also sensitive enough to fish for scup.

It's a bit heavy, but once you handle something big, you'll realize why.
Pros
  • Strength
  • Quality
  • Warrantee
Cons
  • Weight, a bit heavy.
  • Inconvenient to transport (60/40 split)

For the money you can't go wrong. I use frequently in the Gulf of Mexico. It gets the bait out with no problems so far.

Broke at the 70/30 split on 4th outing at the canal
July 27, 2020
I chose this rod based on reviews and St Croix's reputation, but rather disappointed with this rod as it snapped cleanly at the 70/30 split after hooking up on a striper at Cape Cod Canal. Rod is barely 3 months old and only used 4 times. I have this paired with a Gosa 10k reel and it easily casts to the middle third of the canal with the right lure, but not impressed with the durability so far. I have a warranty claim started - I'll post more when St Croix responds.

Bought my 12 foot 5 years ago from Tackle Direct and registered the rod. While cleaning gear, 3 of the eyes popped out. I called St. Croix and they are sending me a new top section. Very cool.
Pros
  • Excellent shark and big redfish rod. Pulled in a 150# tarpon too.
Cons
  • None

Love the handle
November 19, 2019
It’s a pretty slim handle to me, almost like im just holding the actual blank but this rod is a beast in the surf. Although I’ve heard of stories about peoples snapping on them they’re still great rods
By Alex

I wouldn’t recommend it
July 21, 2019
It was great for the short time that it lasted. Unfortunately it doubled over on a cast and I’ve since upgraded. I would definitely recommend spending a bit more on an Avid Surf.
Don’t my experience steer you away from the brand, they have the best customer service in the business hands down!
Pros
  • St. Croix customer service
Cons
  • The mojo is the only rod in their lineup that I wouldn?t recommend.

St. Croix 9' MMF: Would the Spheros 8k be too big for this rod? I'd like to use a heavier line 40# braid, and I also want to use this for plugging
1 Answer
The 8k Sheros will work but it may be a bit heavy if you are plugging. The 6k Spheros would be more ideal, and can handle 40lb test.

September 20, 2016
I want to buy this pole and also a ten foot one (St. Croix TSRS100M4 Triumph Surf Travel Rod or Penn CARSFII2050S10 Carnage II Surf Spinning Rod ) for light surf casting (lures between 1.5 and 3.0 oz max) for medium size blues (cocktails) and stripers and also long casts with bucktails for fluke. I'm undecided about the reel size. I have some 4000 reels (Pt smoke inshore and Penn conflict), but I think they would be too light. Do you agree? I was thinking about setting these rods up with a Spheros 5000 or 6000. Is the Spheros 5000 sufficient? Is the Spheros 600 too heavy?
1 Answer
The Spheros 6000 would work well with both of those rods.

What is the best Penn reel match for this series of rods.

I would probably put a Penn Spinfisher 4500 on that rod. I use one of those on a 9ft St. Croix and they are a perfect combo.
