STC Cover - St. Croix Rods
PAGE 8 The world gets duped every time. Some new invention or technology comes along and we’re told it’s all to make life simpler. It’s always the exact opposite, isn’t it? Fortunately, we still have fishing – the simple drama of you at one end of a line and a fish at the other end. Of course, more often than not, there’s a St. Croix rod in between. PAGE 9 THE GENTLE HUM OF A FINELY-TUNED OUTBOARD SURE SEEMS TO DO A GOOD JOB DROWNING OUT THE CRYING AROUND TAX SEASON. Whether it was a stroke of genius or happy coincidence, the act of handing over your hard-earned money to Uncle Sam is at least mitigated by it coinciding relatively close to the opening days of fishing season. Not only that, but if you’ve planned properly you’ll have plenty of refund money to pick up one of the new, completely redesigned Legend Elite® rods. From butt to tip, we’ve made our flagship series even better. Super-high modulus SC V graphite with FRS in the lower section. Loaded with IPC,® ART,™ TET and new Fuji® Torzite® guides with solid-titanium frames – the ultimate guide. The result is a rod with dramatically improved balance, handle ergonomics and sensitivity. The bar for freshwater rods has just been seriously raised.

It is a delicate balance – keep up with the boys but don’t intimidate them. Well, maybe a few of us here can handle having a gal on the boat that knows her spinners from her jerkbaits. Maybe we’re confident enough to build her a rod of her own. Something special like our Avid Pearl series. Every rod in the series features a high modulus SC III graphite blank beautifully made and incorporating our exclusive IPC® technology. These sweet sticks are highly specialized, rods that despite their gorgeous fuchsia-metallic exterior, are cruel tools of intimidation.

You’re at the local watering hole. Some guy sits right smack dab in the center of the bar squeezing a piece of fruit into his beer. He’s talking about wedges, chip shots and birdies. Hey, to each his own. Then he says something about minnows. Now we’re talking. If it turns out he has a Premier® spinning rod, you may just buy a round. Then the two of you can compare notes on the qualities of the premium SC II graphite blanks and how well they fish. These spinning rods are incredibly balanced, light and loaded for action. Cheers.

These are the kind of history-making choices awaiting those in possession of a St. Croix® Trout or Panfish Series rod. Both are designed to provide the perfect blend of power, sensitivity and balance – while serving up dialed-in performance for fish that require the utmost finesse and delicacy. Pickle anyone?

Some people dedicate their lives to art. Some to finding a cure for cancer. Some to fishing. These are all noble pursuits. But no one expects the artist to work with inferior brushes. Or the researcher to get by with less adequate test tubes. So no one should expect you to settle for anything less than a Triumph® series rod. Made with SC II graphite and available in a variety of styles, Triumph rods deliver more value per cast than any other rod going, making both your money and time well spent.

MAYBE YOU SHOULD, TOO. The more you fish, the more you realize it’s a little more complicated than you thought. There are new situations, varying conditions and different species of fish to go after. And go after them you shall. Each and every one. Of course, if you throw in a bunch of variables, you need tools specific to the task. So here we are adding two new rods to our Triumph® X series to help round out your arsenal of fishing tools. They’re each fabricated from St. Croix’s quality SC II graphite blanks and finished with a highly detailed paint process that offers a unique, customized appearance. Seal the deal with premium EVA split-grip handles combined with Fuji® reel seat for all-day casting comfort, and you have the perfect rods for bass, walleye, pike and panfish at a tremendous value.
