St Croix Fly Rods
Many Anglers Say they are the Ultimate Fly Rod
St Croix has been making fly rods since 1948. Like many of the well known and mature fly rod companies, they started out making bamboo fly rods. Then, in 1956 St Croix developed a telescopic fly rod series which eventually lead to the introduction of the 3-piece-travel St Croix fly rods.
St Croix has developed its own technology for making quality fly rods. Some of their innovative ideas like the IPC “integrated poly curve” and ART “advanced reinforcing technology” give these fly rods a truly unique feel and response. It is far superior to the traditional characteristics of the bamboo fly rods that St Croix started with these new techniques and materials used today have given birth to a far superior fly rod both in feel and durability. Even with these new designs St. Croix is committed to producing and affordable fly rod to fit within budget of all the fly fishing anglers.
The Legend Ultra rods are a terrific fly rod not only in terms of value, but also their cast ability. The heavier Legend Ultra rods like the 8 weight and heavier can really move some line. Try one of the Triumph, Premier, Reign, Imperial, Avid, Legend Ultra, or the Legend Elite St Croix fly rods and you will be glad you gave one of them a try.
