Description:

The fish won't know what hit 'em when you're using this St. Croix Avid Series rod with our Watershed reel. Together they make for a balanced combo and a serious one-two punch. 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. These rods have Fuji Alconite stripper guides with black frames and hard chrome guides and premium cork handles. The 2-6 weight rods feature an ebony wood reel seat and the 7-10 weight rods have an anodized-aluminum reel seat with fighting butt. All Avid Rods come with a 1,000-denier nylon-covered rod case with a divided polypropylene liner. Backed by St. Croix's lifetime limited warranty. Made in USA. Watershed reels are designed for anglers wanting superior drag performance, aesthetics and durability. The reel is lightweight, built from 6061-T6 proprietary aluminum alloy. The reels are fully machined as a one-piece frame and one-piece spool. The drag system is fabricated from Delrin -impregnated Teflon that is heat-resistant, self-lubricating and maintenance-free. The drag is sensitive, precise and capable of protecting light tippets when tangling with trophy-class fish. Each reel in this series is designed with a specific diameter and width to maximize the properties of drag consistency and quick line retrieval. Oil-impregnated bronze bushings mated to a stainless steel spindle allow the spool to rotate smoothly. Three sizes for line weights three through eight.This rod and reel combo comes with Scientific Anglers Mastery GPX fly line and Cabela's Prestige backing.
