I believe their signature series, They are both under 6 mos old I just upgraded to loomis and St. Croix's I used the spin rod for Jig fishing with great results. It would be perfect for a smaller river, Just got an 11 footer that works better for the bigger rivers that I fish. The salmon rod has only caught 3 or 4 fish me thinks. Preference issue, I just like lighter rods better. The bobber rod is sweet, I just don't bobber fish that much.
