St. Croix has completely redesigned its versatile Avid Series rods using Integrated Poly Curve (IPC) Tooling Technology and premium, high-modulus SCIII graphite. This IPC technology creates tapers with a continuous curve from tip to butt that result in stronger rods and actions that produce smooth, powerful casting strokes and precise line control. Fuji Alconite stripper guides with black frames and hard chrome guides and premium cork handles. Comes with a 1,000-denier nylon-covered rod case with a divided polypropylene liner. Backed by St. Croixs lifetime limited warranty. Made in USA. Images depict the style of the rod handle and may not fully represent the actual length.
