I bought this to cast 1/64oz jigs. I does well for very light tackle.

Light and sensitive
April 6, 2022
These are great rods with a great warranty. They are super sensitive and well made. I have the premier rod in 3 sizes and just had a warranty replacement on my ultralight. After 12 years, the tip broke (not sure how) and st croix shipped me a brand new rod for free, no questions asked. Very happy with the performance and customer service!

Exactly What I Wanted
December 21, 2021
Was looking for a good free lining rod for quite sometime and came across this rod and decided to give it a try. It is perfect in terms of the flexability I wanted but also strong enough that I wasnt worried about it breaking.
Pros
- Light
- Very Flexable
- Sturdy
Cons
- None so far

Well Made Rod
September 17, 2021
This pole is well made as all St Croix rods are. What I didn't like is in the description of the pole, it stated that the rod come with a tube. It did not come with a tube. Tackle Direct informed me that only the travel rod comes with a tube. They appear to not sell the travel pole version of this rod. I believe that the statement should come out of the description. In either case, the rod is a great rod.

Great rod paired with 1000 size reel for kayak fishing small lakes for Rainbows. Sensitive but good hook-sets. Handled 2 lb. rainbow caught on first cast with this setup. My favorite light tackle rod.
Pros

- - Perfect length for kayak fishing
- - Casts well with 1/2 oz. Carolina rig
- - Casts smaller lures nicely with 4 lb. fluoro line
Cons
- None noted

St. Croix craftsmanship
May 10, 2020
St. Croix rods is about serious craftsmanship. All the way from from the Triumph to the Legend family every St. Croix rod is made with high end quality components. I own several premier rods but my favorite is the 6'6" MLF 2pieces. Versatile, cast a mile, easy to transport.
Pros
- Easy to transport / 2piece; great selection for various applications; good price
Cons
- None

These rods will handle all your freshwater needs. Rinse them if you intend to use in salt. Should be able to handle a salty environment though.
Pros
- Tough, looks
Cons
- Need more care if intended for salt
