Hello Dustin. I use to live in Lake Forest. I am now in the Pasadena area. I would like both your MH and M 7' V Rod if possible. The reason being is I like both those actions and with the V Rods at about a hundred bucks or less now, I would like to make it an even trade. I have been offered $250.00 by a couple of guys at Shimano America Corporation in Irvine for my Crucial and decided to hang on to it. I'm not trying to sound unreasonable, like I wrote before this is an Original Crucial Rod. If you want to trade both your rods then we have a deal. If not, no hurt feelings. Let me know Thanks Dustin!:7
