St. Croix Legend Tournament Walleye Spinning Rods

St. Croix Legend Tournament Walleye rods are proudly made in America, designed, and handcrafted in Park Falls, WI. The rods are technique-specific to meet any walleye fishing demand and are loaded with St. Croix Rod proprietary technologies: IPC, ART, TET, FRS.

IPC - Integrated Poly Curve Technology: Developed exclusively by St. Croix, Integrated Poly Curve® (IPC®) tooling technology has rapidly become the engineering leader in rodmaking. Designed to eliminate all transitional points in the rod blank, IPC-engineered rods feature smoother actions, increased strength and greater sensitivity.

ART - Advanced Reinforcing Technology: Advanced Reinforcing Technology™ (ART™) is an exotic carbon fiber material that adds a magnitude (10X) of strength with virtually no increase in blank diameter or weight. ART significantly improves the hoop strength of the blank by preventing it from deforming or “ovaling” under a severe load, such as a powerful hook set or fish battle. ART is also a critical part of our slim-profile ferrule design.

TET - Taper Enhancement Technology: After several years of R&D and testing, St. Croix has perfected an innovative new Taper Enhancement Technology (TET) that begins with precision-cut, curved blank patterns made possible by a state-of-the-art computerized pattern-cutting machine. When combined with IPC-mandrels, these unique patterns create blanks with better actions and improved sensitivity. This pattern design and cutting technology is a dramatic departure from traditional straight-line patterns cut by hand.

FRS - Fortified Resin System: St. Croix once again breaks new ground in premium rod manufacturing technology with the development of a new Fortified Resin System (FRS), which combines a fortified super resin with new computer-operated curing ovens that provide improved temperature and time management through all stages of the curing cycle. FRS prevents micro buckling by keeping the carbon fibers in proper alignment. Blanks manufactured using this advanced manufacturing protocol test out consistently to be 33% stronger than those built with standard resins and curing methods.
