Default G. Loomis & St. Croix

IMHO

The faster tip of the Loomis will require more effort to obtain the same
distance and hook set then the St. Croix. As for the sensitivity they both
will provide the same with one exception due to the fast tip the Loomis will
send a little less feed back from the rod to the fish. This is a good thing
if your not use to feeling a bite giving you more time to feel the bite and
set the hook.

Right here is where the difference in the two rods is. The Loomis GL2
has a Moderate Fast action, a little bit more wiggle to it than the Avid
a Fast action rod.

So which action is better for using rubber worms, senko, throwing
distance, sensitivity?
