[QUOTE="Mattman, post: 3662, member: 23"] Loomis crankbait blanks are a Mod-Fast action. The St. Croix's are slower and a true Moderate action. In my opinion, they more closly mimic how most glass rods bend. You really need to define "Medium". There is no such defined term in the rod industry. Everybody's Medium is different. More to the point...what cranks are you looking at tossing? Size and depth both play a role in which power would be best for you. Spinnerbaits tend to be tossed on faster actioned rods than cranks. For a compromise stick, the Mod-Fast Loomis would probably be a good option. If you want something of a length between 7' and 6'6", then you need to look at modifying an existing blank. I can't think of one single blank that is of an "odd" length. [/QUOTE]
