Croix Legend Elite

If you don't know there is an American made fishing rod that has captured the attention of a lot of salmon and steelhead fisherman. It's called St Croix and they have created a new and affordable rod called the Wild River. Without sacrificing the farm these new rods are fun to fish with.

You can find a lot of these rods in boats all across America because St Croix has over 350 different models to help you catch any fish with any method using their rods. These salmon/steelhead fishing rods are premium rods that you will instantly fall in love with.

St Croix rods are built with quality reel sets, guides and a patented graphite, that allows the rods to be powerful, sensitive and responsive. Depending on which series you purchase you can expect to pay from $100 up to $400. Some of their rods are feather light, and super sensitive. I know we love to use these rods for fishing for steelhead on the Columbia River.

For steelhead and salmon fisherman you have your choice of these St Croix rods.

* Triump Series

* Wild River Salmon

* Legend Elite

* Avid Series

What I have noticed recently is the move to longer rods for steelhead/salmon. As you know these fish are powerful and will not give up quickly. The longer your rod the easier it is on your arms to land the fish. I made the mistake recently of using a 8'6" rod and hooked into a 13 pound steelhead. The normal time it takes to land a smaller fish is less than 5 minutes. A fish of this size can either come in quickly or they will give you a fight that lasts 10-15 minutes depending on how soft your drag is.

That 8'6" rod is a great rod but it took it's toll on my arms. I couldn't believe how tired I was after landing that fish. Had I been using my St Croix noodle rod like I normally do, it wouldn't have been as fatiqued.

Why was I using the smaller rod in the first place?

I like to fish with two rods to keep my bait in front of the fish longer. I have one loaded with shrimp and the other fishing. When I pull in the line, if my shrimp is gone, I cast the other rod out and get my other rod ready for the next time. Since I don't have 2 noodle rods, I have to use my old rod, so that is why carry two rods.

These steelhead and salmon rods come with a very unique warranty that you truly need to check out on their website. Depending on which series of rod you purchase, you will either receive a limited lifetime warranty, 5 year warranty or a one year warranty.

The next time you are at your local sporting goods store, go visit the rod section and take a look at these rods. They are light, have two coats of slow drying "flex coat" and they use a patented IPC and ART technology that allows the rod to be smaller, but strong enough for any salmon you can catch.

If you are going to compare these rods to other rods, my best advice is to put a reel on both rods and then play around with them. You can feel the difference and for your next birthday or Christmas ask for these rods, you won't be disappointed.

You've gotta take a look at their Avid Pearl rod for women, it's unbelievable St Croix Fishing Rods. If you like to fish in the winter then please take a look at some of the heaters you could have sitting in your boat keeping you warm. Portable Heaters Guide.
