The graphite artists at the St. Croix plant have several technological breakthroughs to their credit; like IPC tooling and ART reinforcement that make St. Croix the state of the art rods manufactured in North America. These exclusive technical innovations are incorporated in St. Croix's most advanced bass rods; the Legend Tournament Bass Rod series.

Any angler who has participated in any tournament at any level knows tournament bass fishing is serious business. It's not just man against fish, or competing with yourself, but you are pitting your skill against someone else's and someone is going to come up short. Whether it's ten or three hundred, you're going to carry your bag of fish that represents your skill level to the scales in front of a lot of people, and, of course, you want to do the best you can. The St. Croix Legend Tournament rods will give you every advantage you can get from your equipment.

SC IV Graphite: High Modulus/High Strain graphite for maximum sensitivity, lightweight, strength and responsiveness.

IPC Tooling: This technology allows the rod builders to create tapers that are continuos curves, which eliminates weakening transition points and allows unprecedently smooth casts.

ART Reinforcement: Exclusive to St. Croix, this technology adds a very thin layer of graphite fibers at right angles to the long fibers giving the rod much greater ‘hoop' strength to resist crushing from over-bending the rod or stepping on it!

Lifetime Limited Warranty: Your rod is covered against defects in material and workmanship for life!

Add the luxury features you'd expect from such a high quality fishing tool like, Super Grade cork, Fuji Alconite Guides, and a beautiful, lustrous finish and you have one of the finest rods ever built in your hands.
