STC Cover - St. Croix Rods
PAGE 50 Do not wave a white flag and say, “I wish I had more time to fish.” TAKE the time. If you cavalierly sit there and let it happen, life will suck the…well, life out of you. Control your destiny, Captain. If you are the proud owner of a St. Croix rod, the only thing holding you back is gumption. The last thing anyone wants is a life lacking in gumption. PAGE 51 WHILE IT’S TRUE ALL BEER IS GOOD, BEER ON THE DOCK IS BETTER. Not only does fishing make the annoying things in life more palatable, but makes the good things even better. Bluer skies, fresher air and lovelier sunsets. And yes, when you’ve put away the Legend® Xtreme Inshore rods for the day and grabbed a cold beverage, that beverage is more satisfying. Some credit must be given to the rod of course. These uber-performance rods loaded with IPC,® ART,™ TET technologies on high-modulus SC V with SC VI graphite blanks – fitted with premium saltwater-grade components – make the world a better place. Albeit an intense, inshore-fishing-experience kind of place. PAGE 52 BEST SALTWATER ROD FEATURES Integrated Poly Curve® (IPC®) tooling technology. Taper Enhancement Technology (TET) blank design provides curved patterns for improved action with increased sensitivity. Advanced Reinforcing Technology™ (ART™). Super high-modulus SCVI graphite with FRS in lower section for maximum power and strength with reduced weight. High-modulus / high-strain SCV graphite with FRS and carbon-matte scrim for unparalleled strength, durability and sensitivity. Designed specifically for inshore saltwater angling. Kigan Master Hand Zero Tangle guides with zirconia rings and titanium frames for the ultimate protection against saltwater corrosion. The sloped, wide leg design prevents line tangles with mono, fluorocarbon and super braid lines. LEGEND® XTREME INSHORE SPINNING RODS MODEL XIS70MLF XIS70MF XIS70MHF LGTH. PWR.

It’s been often noted that most of the world’s surface is water – and therefore fishable. Which leaves all of us with a fairly herculean task if we’re going to drop a line in a significant portion. At least the task has grown a little easier now, thanks to the Legend® Trek series. With eight performance spinning and casting travel rods designed and built for fresh- and saltwater anglers you can spend your time making flight reservations instead of wondering what rod to bring. Each blank is painted with a rich Belize blue finish and features proprietary St. Croix® technology including our SC IV graphite with FRS (Fortified Resin System) plus Advanced Reinforcing Technology™ (ART™). Corrosion-proof components including solid-titanium guides and hook-keepers provide saltwater anglers protection against the elements the world over. Be sure to send us a postcard.

Attention over-protective mothers and those of Scandanavian descent – the sun is not our enemy. In fact, with proper protection, some sun exposure is not only okay, it’s downright healthy. Especially when it’s from the deck of a boat. And with at least one Tidemaster® inshore rod in attendance. With 47 models to choose from, the odds of one being on the boat are in your favor. Handcrafted with our exclusive SC II graphite blank, and outfitted with uncompromising components, the incredibly popular Tidemaster comes in a huge array of actions, lengths and power ranges – ready for nearly every inshore application. And yes, they work on cloudy days as well. PAGE 58 FEATURES Premium-quality SC II graphite. Fuji® ECS or TCS reel seat / frosted silver hood on casting models.

Don’t you just hate when you get tackle spam? EXACTLY. There is no tackle spam. And fishing doesn’t email you with work on a Saturday evening and ruin your weekend. If fishing did make demands of your time on a Sunday evening, well, that wouldn’t be so bad anyway. It would just tell you to grab a Mojo Inshore rod and get to work. Tooled from St. Croix’s premium-quality SC II graphite blank and finished with saltwater-grade guides, these rods are incredibly durable and deliver the goods in all their spinning and casting configurations.

SOUNDS LIKE THE POLITICALLY CORRECT WAY OF SAYING YOU JUST HIT A SCHOOL OF STRIPERS. When you describe a fishing experience as “slaying ’em,” it can sound a tad callous to the general public.

Maybe even keep the conversation focused on the new redesign of the Legend® Surf series. High-modulus/high-strain SC IV graphite blanks loaded up with a host of proprietary technologies. IPC,® ART™ and FRS, and new Fuji® Torzite® solid-titanium frame surf guides make these rods extreme surf-fishing conversation starters.

Toughing it out on the beach offers three advantages: you’re on the beach, you’re fishing and you’re watching waves not television. Oh, then there’s the fact you might be casting an Avid Surf rod. There are eleven different lightweight powerhouses to choose from – each targeted to a specific style of never-say-die surf angler.

To combat the forces of stress that seek to expose every inch of your cranium, i.e. to keep from going bald, there is no better prescription than you, a boat and a couple Legend Salt rods. Immediate usage will restore that youthful glow and slow the onset of stress-induced follicle loss. If not, you are still at least fishing – with a St. Croix® Legend® Salt rod no less. Juiced up with IPC® and ART,™ these are powerful saltwater tools. In fact, they probably do more to improve your appearance than a full head of hair anyway.
