St. Croix Avid Series Casting Rods

The Avid Series Rods are constructed of SCIII graphite, an advanced high-modulus graphite that delivers maximum durability and sensitivity. These rods feature the advanced Fuji Alconite Concept Guide System. The alconite rings provide increased strength and durability with a compression strength up to 80% greater than ordinary guide rings. The concept system isn't just stronger it's lighter, too; up to 35% lighter than conventional guides. The concept guides also enhance sensitivity, casting distance and accuracy. Plus, they help to reduce line twists.

With skeletal-cork reel seats and ergonomically shaped select-grade cork handles the Avid Series Rods give you all day casting comfort. These rods have specialized technique-specific taper designs so you can select the right rod for the job. The Avid Series Rods are handcrafted in the U.S.A and backed by a limited lifetime warranty. You can't go wrong with an Avid Rod.

Comments: I have the AVC66MF and it is the best rod I have ever used.  This is the first St. Croix I have ever owned and it will not be the last.  It is very light and sensitive, I can fish all day with it without any fatigue.

From: Eric: USA

Comments: I have the 7' medium fast action Avid series rod and love it, spinnerbaits, senkos, whatever else.  Excellent all around rod, well worth the money.
