The St. Croix Legend Elite fly rods are strong and cast with unparalleled precision and smoothness. The IPC Tooling Technology is the first of its kind that creates tapers that are on a continuous curve from the tip of the rod to the butt, so all weak spots are eliminated. Most other high performing fly rods use compound tapers that employ a few measured transition points that become weak points which subject to breaking.

The Legend Ultra rods boast slim profile ferrules and the best cork handles. The reel seats are made with nickel and silver hardware and bird’s eye maple inserts or machine aluminum with fighting butts.

Each rod in this series comes with a polypropylene line for storage.
