The ocean can be a cruel, unforgiving place. An environment where good looks earn you no favors. A place where any margin of error is latitude for failure. A place where on manyoccasions only a new Legend Salt offshore rod will survive. These premium-quality SCII graphite blanks are designed using St. Croix's proprietary IPC tooling technology and strengthened internally with ART. Each blank is also thermofused with our new NSi (Nano Silica) resin, formulated from a revolutionary new 3M Matrix Resin technology. In other words, we've loaded these bad boys with every ounce of technology at our rod building disposal before we finish them off with the best guides, reel seats and grips. In the end, you're looking at an offshore saltwater rod that devours anything else you'll find.

Great rod!
November 29, 2020
Love this rod. Use it for surf and pier fishing. Beautiful design. Good casting distance. Bought the 12' casting version. My only complaint is the uneven rod sections. The butt length is 5', and the tip section is 7'.
Pros
  • Good action. Beautiful design.
Cons
  • Uneven rod section lengths.

So far So good

I’ve had the 10ft casting rod for a week and I already love this rod. I have it paired with a daiwa lexa 400hd spooled with 40lb braid. The Xgrip is very comfortable and the 70/30 split gives it the feel of a one piece rod. I plan on getting the spinning version soon.
Pros
  • 70/30 split
  • Light weight
  • Well made

Light, light surf rod
June 25, 2019
I purchased a 11" Mojo surf casting rod to throw chunks of bait into the ocean. This rod is so light compare to all my other surf rods. It does throw smaller bait out futher - 30-50 feet, but does not do as well if you use a big piece of bait, eg., a hunk of bunker. You still need some skill. I caugh a big cownose or eagle ray on it and it stood up to the strain well. Still - I'm not sure if its really worth that much money especially if you have to pay for extra packaging too (I had a Gift Certificate).
Pros
  • Very light weight rod. Throws bait a little further - but you still have to have the skill.
Cons
  • Expensive. May have to pay for extra packaging.

Rod is a great weight for its size ( 11'). Casting distance is awesome with a 4 oz sinker. Wish the rod handle had a butt cap.
Pros
  • light weight
  • good casting distance
  • looks great
Cons
  • no rod butt cap
  • wish handle was a little longer

Let down
September 29, 2018
I turned a 2 piece rod into a 4 piece by casting 3.5oz on a rod rated 2-6oz. I will be missing the fall migration.

Oh yeah, I just wrote another review on the Triumph that broke in half while casting. I am seeing a trend here. Terrible product, even worse customer service. Thanks guys.
Pros
  • none
Cons
  • Don't rely on St Croix

July 17, 2018
have been using this rod for a few weeks and have been very impressed. so far i have caught a wide range of fish including yellowfin crocker, halibut, leopard shark, shovelnose shark, and perch. i can cast very far with this rod and is also very lightweight. i see myself using this rod for many years to come.
Pros
  • casts far

Excellent Finish
December 21, 2017
This rod is the best. It separates down by the handle to rod junction so it is essentially a one piece rod but is easily transported. Very nice finish and seems very sturdy. I have not had the pleasure of fishing with it at this time but am very much looking forward to it.
Pros
  • 2 Piece construction
Cons
  • None

Quality heaver
November 13, 2017
Throws 4oz + a bunker head no problem. Lots of backbone. Paired with either a blue yonder or fathom spooled with 20lb mono, it casts a mile.
Pros
  • Great action
Cons
  • None

The mullet head Heaver
August 31, 2016
I desired this rod as a heaver for spider sinkers and baitfish heaved out into the Texas gulf coast, and am very well pleased running it with an Avet MX reel and 20# Prospec Mono. It exceeded my expectations on quality, and its performance so far has been ahead of my abilities to deploy it. It is also been a good surface iron to pitch trolley line out for slider line kingfishing off piers. Its a long heavy thing i discovered so I ended up getting a 10 foot surf rod and smaller Avet SX reel so i can prowl around the surf and Jettys while this setup soaks bait.
Pros
  • Well made, priced well, casts well - better than I can so far. As usual, Tackle Direct fast reliable tracked and shipped, FAST, no BS service.
Cons
  • Its a beast to transport even broken down since its about 7'9" on the long section. So far strapping it to rooftop racks or danglin' it off a pickup tailgate in a lumber store PVC sched. 40 "rod barn" is the way to go. Trying an experiment next to see if it will fit in a car by dropping the rear seat and stuffing a lot of the butt end in the trunk.

Nice surf rod
June 23, 2016
Everything flies with this rod. Kind of weird where it breaks down, not in half. More like 70/30. So the handle has no eyes on it. Think that's ok really, unless you're expecting to break it down to fit in a small car or trunk. It's also probably part of why they charge an extra fee for "oversized" packaging. The rod arrived in a very heavy cardboard tube that's too nice to just throw away. Rod is really a huckster, I'm throwing all my striper lures 15-20 yards further with this rod and a new Daiwa Coastal reel. Only complaint would be that for this price point, the rod should have a hook anchor on the butt end of the rod. Minor annoyance.

My favorite surf rod
May 8, 2016
I have a few St Croix legends and some nice rods but oddly this one is my new fav. I took it this weekend and threw 5oz and a chunk and it was just great! No I haven't caught a fish on it yet, but I'm pretty damn sure it will do perfect for a big red. I have used a heavier mojo and bought this one for a little more action during fish fighting. I feels like the perfect middle of the road rod.
I really expected these to not be as good since they made in MX and not the USA like other rods, but for $250 which ain't cheap, the rod performed.
Pros
  • Construction, cast ability, value
Cons
  • None yet

strong rod
October 7, 2015
Good rod, seems to be strong and made well. Love St Croix for giving good price option rods. THis one is not cheap, but better then most and not as much $ as going custom or ledgend series.
Pros
  • Mojo rods are good/better then most for the $$
Cons
  • none

What is the difference between the surf casting and surf spinning rod of this model. What applications would you use one vs the other in surf fishing please???
1 Answer
The Surf Casting model would be paired with conventional reels, while the Surf Spinning model would be paired with a spinning reel. You can use either for most applications, but many the vast majority of surf anglers use spinning tackle unless they are bait fishing with heavy weights and big baits.
