To make the best rods in the business, St. Croix must partner with the best suppliers. We’re especially proud of our network of graphite material partners, all of whom contribute to the exceptional performance, quality and value that define a St. Croix rod. This year, the 3M Company, a long-time St. Croix supply partner, will be supplying their exciting new 3M™ Matrix Resin to fuse the graphite in our highest performance SCV graphite rods. 3M’s remarkable new composite resin uses nano-technology to significantly improve the strength and durability of graphite rods, and when used in conjunction with our other advanced materials and proprietary design and manufacturing technologies, furthers our ability to build the best rods on earth.
A BRIEF BACKGROUND ON GRAPHITE:
3M MATRIX RESIN
The fishing tackle industry uses graphite and carbon interchangeably. Technically speaking, the correct term is “carbon.”
THE TECHNOLOGY THAT MAKES OUR RODS SO STRONG IS INVISIBLE TO THE NAKED EYE. AT LEAST UNTIL YOU SET THE HOOK.
™
A lot has changed since the introduction of the first graphite fishing rods back in the mid-1970s. Designed largely by trial and error, early graphite rods were inspired by the imagination, experience and talent of the rod designers – and the availability of a steady stream of new and improved graphite fibers.
The 3M Company, the global leader in adhesive technology, recently introduced a new breakthrough resin that uses nano-sized (ultra-microscopic) spheres of silica as a homogeneous, non-abrasive filler between the carbon fibers of a graphite rod blank, which results in a much stronger, more sensitive
Graphite fiber, a bi-product of the space race, evolved quickly as aerospace applications for this exciting new material expanded. Each generation of “new” graphite was stronger and stiffer (e.g.,“higher modulus”) than previous generations as the “space race” ratcheted graphite development into high gear. Rod makers took notice, and soon the space race created a “modulus race” in the fishing rod industry. As each new high-modulus graphite fiber was developed for aerospace, rod designers used it to create lighter, faster, more responsive fishing rods.
finished product. We’ve named our formulation of this new resin NSi (Nano Silica), and we’ll be using it to build all of our SC V graphite rods – plus a new Carbon fiber composite shows uniform distribution of nano silica particles.
offshore saltwater series. The “nano-silica” particles in 3M’s Matrix Resin are uniformly distributed and densely packed in the resin that binds the individual graphite fibers, which
reinforces them during compression when the rod is flexed. This significantly increases the fibers’ compression strength by resisting micro-buckling – for improved hoop and flex strength of the blank. The result is a
In the past decade, everything changed. Graphite fibers are now available in a huge selection of modulus and strength, and new high modulus / high strain fibers deliver both increased stiffness and superior strength. St. Croix currently uses five different graphite materials formulated to our exact specifications to design and build over 30 different series of rods – one of the largest in the industry.
30% (or more) stronger blank without any change in the weight, action or power of the finished rod.
Rod design has also evolved from the draftsman’s table to the computer, and we now use sophisticated mathematical algorithms to design precise tapers for each graphite material to achieve the exact performance characteristics we want in our rods.
The end results are astonishing. Rods built with 3M™ Matrix Resin are stronger, more durable and tougher – with sig-
The nano-silica filler also improves the resin’s adhesive bond between the carbon fibers, which increases the internal shear strength of the rod blank while further improving the flex strength. Almost twice as hard as conventional resins when fully cured, our tests reveal that rods manufactured with 3M’s new Matrix Resin show both an increase in modulus for improved sensitivity, and a significant increase in fracture resistance and overall blank toughness.
nificantly improved hoop/flex strength and resistance to fracture. All without an increase in weight or a change in the rod’s action or power.

“The new 3M Matrix Resin has opened the door for us to become more creative in our rod blank designs.The strength improvement we’ve seen in our laboratory is incredible, with a 30% average increase in strength on existing products. The new 3M Matrix Resin has also allowed us to push the limits of design in new rod series, like our new Legend Salt. In that case, we were able to create substantially lighter, more sensitive saltwater rods without compromising strength.” – Jason Brunner, St. Croix’s Director of Engineering. ™

ST. CROIX TECHNOLOGIES: A superior resin does not automatically result in a superior fishing rod. But when combined with St. Croix’s state-of-the-art computer-assisted rod design capabilities, our own proprietary design and manufacturing technologies, and over 60 years of rod-making experience, the new 3M™ Matrix Resin makes a great rod even better. ADVANCED REINFORCING TECHNOLOGY (ART ) ™
™
St. Croix’s Advanced Reinforcing Technology (ART) uses horizontally wrapped, high-strength carbon fibers on the inside of the hollow blanks to strengthen critical areas of our highest performance rods – without adding bulk or extra weight. (See page 6) INTEGRATED POLY CURVE ® (IPC ®) TECHNOLOGY St. Croix’s proprietary Integrated Poly Curve (IPC) Technology was another breakthrough in blank design because it allows us to design rod tapers in continuous flowing curves instead of “step tapers” used previously. This results in smoother casting with no weak taper transition points. The continuous-curve tapers also transmit vibrations more efficiently for noticeably enhanced sensitivity. (See page 6)

...................................................................................
WHAT IS MODULUS? Modulus is the physical measure of a material’s stiffness, equal to the ratio of applied load (stress) to the resulting deformation of a material (strain). A fiber with higher modulus is harder to bend – and will snap back faster – than a lower modulus fiber of the same weight. That means a rod made of high-modulus graphite requires fewer fibers to achieve the same stiffness as a rod made with lower modulus graphite – so the higher modulus rod weighs less and telegraphs vibrations with more sensitivity. But higher modulus fibers also tend to be more brittle than lower modulus fibers, so rod designers must find just the right balance between stiffness and strength when working with high-modulus graphite fibers. ...................................................................................
K E Y D E S I G N FA C T O R S Other factors that impact the strength, weight, sensitivity and action of a rod include the type and amount of resin used to bind the fibers together, the amount of prepreg material used, the type of scrim used to create the sheet of graphite fibers that will form the blank, the pattern used to cut the sheet to its final dimensions, and the shape of the mandrel used to roll the graphite sheet into a finished blank. Rod action and weight are also impacted by the type and placement of guides.

ENGINEERING When you set out to uncover what makes a St. Croix different from other rods, you need look no further than the engineer sitting right beside the rod designer. It’s a partnership that’s produced such breakthroughs as St. Croix’s exclusive Integrated Poly Curve® and Advanced Reinforcing Technology.™ Rod performance is only as good as the design behind it – so before we even think about sending a rod through for production, we spend as much time as necessary in the design department to ensure that every St. Croix rod is engineered and developed to outperform all others.

IN THEIR HANDS?
The passionate angler is presented with many palettes to express their affections. Cars. Boats. T-shirts. Other people’s cars and boats. But ultimately the greatest expressions are not made with adhesive plastic but with a St. Croix® Mojo Bass rod. These technique-specific rods are fully loaded SC II graphite magic wands dressed up in a hot black-cherry metallic finish. And the components? Only the finest. No shortcuts were taken. In fact, they’ve become so popular we added two new glass models this year – the Crankster and BIg Crankster. You’re welcome.

IT’S A BATTLE BETWEEN YOU AND A MUSKY — TO SEE WHO ENDS UP ON A
MILK CARTON.
Okay, admittedly, on occasion there’s something to the whole “fish of 10,000 casts” mumbo jumbo. Not that there’s anything wrong with spending a considerable amount of time on the water. There are worse things, honcho. But when those times roll around there’s nothing like coming to the game with one of our Premier® casting rods. Thirty-nine different handcrafted models fashioned from premium SCII graphite with ultra-hard SiC tip tops, these are serious go-to musky rods. Bass fanatic? No problem. Premier casting rods can work a crankbait all day long as well.

Some people fish for fish, some people fish for voracious prehistoric dinosaurs, more commonly known as Muskellunge. No matter what grabs your fancy – or your crankbait – the Avid Series® AC300A casting reel is perfect for throwing big lures to big fish.

IF SOMEONE SAYS NOTHING CAN KEEP A SALMON FROM RETURNING TO ITS HOME RIVER, ASK THEM IF THIS ROD LOOKS LIKE
“NOTHING.”
The pull of Nature is an impressive force. It guides with a strong hand and corrects with subtlety. It says, “Go with the Wild River.®” Not out loud, mind you. But in your head. And with 25 different specialized lengths, tapers and powers to address every imaginable need in salmon or steelhead fishing, it would be hard to argue with Nature.

IF MAINTAINING A GOOD LAWN WAS SO IMPORTANT THEN WHY DID THEY
INVENT FISHING?
Despite what must be a well-organized conspiracy waged by lawn care products manufacturers, your yard is not the thing they will talk about when you’re gone. It’s far more likely it will be a photo of you holding up a mess of fish – and an Avid Series® inshore rod. Here are 22 different rods built with our Integrated Poly Curve® (IPC®) tooling technology on premium, high-modulus SCIII graphite blanks topped off with Alps™ zirconium guides with 316 stainless-steel frames for outstanding protection from saltwater corrosion. A handsome copper pearl paint finish really pops in those family photos, it should also be noted.

DOES ANYONE REALLY KNOW WHICH CAME FIRST: INSHORE FISHING OR
THE VISOR?
Ancient pictographs have not weathered the test of time as well as one would hope, thus scholars are unclear whether they depict a bareheaded angler working the tidal waters or not. One thing is certain – if there was a time when fishermen took to their boats without this headgear, it was a dark time indeed. Much like the days before Tidemaster® rods. It’s hard to imagine a world without these strong, extremely sensitive and big-time powerful rods handcrafted on our exclusive SCII graphite blanks. Outfitted with premo hardware like the Batson Forecast® hard aluminum-oxide guides – featuring 316 stainless-steel frames, they have become a favorite among saltwater guides everywhere. There’s even a selection of travel rods. These are brighter days, indeed.

Is it not a supreme act of faith to cast out into the waters and expect to reel something in? Amen. Is it not a jubilant call to the heavens that rings out when you hook into something big and meaty? Hallelujah. Is it not a brush with the divine to put a new Mojo Inshore rod in the boat? Another amen. Here are eight new spinning and seven new casting models delivering exceptional performance and durability at easily affordable prices. Built from St. Croix’s premium-quality SCII graphite and wrapped with Batson Forecast® hard aluminum-oxide guides with 316 stainless steel frames, they offer dramatically improved corrosion resistance. Of course, at this point we’re just preaching to the choir. Time to get your Mojo on.

A HANGNAIL.
When you decide to be a fisherman you play for love not a million-dollar contract. And nothing is stronger than love. A Legend® Surf rod comes close though. The pinnacle of surf sticks, there is nothing as well balanced out there. Period. Starting with our premium SC IV graphite blank and incorporating the exclusive ART™ and IPC® technology, these rods don’t get pushed around. Add the revolutionary smaller diameter Fuji® LC surf guides for a whole new level of casting efficiency and you have the ultimate rod for those who will not be denied.

A BORN FISHERMAN IS ONE WHO KNOWS TO GET MARRIED
BETWEEN RUNS.
There are those who understand the demands of a fishing life right from conception and those who learn the hard way. An anniversary right smack in the middle of a striper run is something you’re going to pay for year after year. Of course, it does set you up to get a sweet Mojo Surf rod as an anniversary gift. Built from premium SCII graphite, these bad boys are topped off with specialized, weight-saving surf guides with a zirconium ring that sends casts off into different time zones. High-performance surf rods at a great value for those born to fish and late bloomers alike.

NOTHING CAN DISTRACT YOU FROM THE WORK AT HAND. NOT EVEN IF IT’S
IN A BIKINI.
Focus. The beach can be full of distractions and if you’re going to hook up – ahem – and be successful fishing, you need to concentrate and keep your hands on your Premier® Surf rod. An enticing secret combination of SCII and SCIIW graphite, Premier Surf rods are as attractive a specimen as you’ll find on any stretch of sand. To us fishermen at least.

THERE COMES A TIME WHEN THE TABLES TURN AND IT’S THE YOUNG THAT
EAT THE OLD.
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 many occasions 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.

AN ENGINEERING GAME CHANGER. ESPECIALLY IN THE
BENT ROD CATEGORY.
We all know trout fishing is a precision business. A relentless test of equipment and ability. But in the end it’s those who keep it simple who set the bar. Nipper, forceps and a Legend Elite® are enough. These rods are an elegent combination of slim-profile ferrules and stunning cosmetics married to premium, high-modulus, highstrain SC V graphite blanks loaded with ART™ and IPC® technology. Legend Elites also feature SC VI graphite in the lower portion of the rod for added power and reduced weight. This year all Elites will feature our exciting new NSi (Nano Silica) resin developed by 3M™ (3M™ Matrix Resin™) as well. The result is enough space-age science and American handcraftsmanship to give you a four-piece rod that performs like a one-piece. Freshwater models are finished in a smooth Gallatin green, while the saltwater rods – featuring our max-power butt section for handling big fish and even bigger winds – are finished in a sweet Belize blue. Quite simply, brilliant.

ANTI-BUG? WHAT IS THIS
MADNESS?
Look, we all know there is an anti-bug bias undermining all that is good and right in our society. Guided by people who show no compunction defaming trout’s primary food source. These subversives should never be allowed anywhere near an Avid Series® trout rod. This comprehensive line of rods featuring IPC® technology with slim-profile ferrules and a beautiful canteen-green pearl finish is too good for them. The moderate action loading progressively down the SCIII blank makes them ideal for protecting light tippets and the extensive selection of models covering a wide array of trout fishing situations is simply more than they deserve.

So do not shy away from any opportunities, oh courageous explorer – urban, suburban, rural and otherwise. No doubt an Imperial® fly rod is ready for whatever you intrepid explorers can uncover. Dressed out in an uncompromisingly gorgeous gloss burgundy blank, its dynamic blend of high-modulus / high-strain SCIV graphite and premium-quality SCII graphite for light weight and fast action just cries out to fish everything you can find. And at this price, it’s no wonder these rods are so popular with all types of adventurous anglers.

Jack Dennis sold his first trout fly when he was 12 years old, started guiding at the age of 14, opened his first tackle shop at 19 – and went on to become one of the West’s best known and respected fly fishing guides, and a book author, videographer and fly fishing retailer. Jack lives and works in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, where he still finds lots of time to fish with his wife and family.

ICE FISHING RODS St. Croix’s Legend ice rods feature a patented built-in strike indicator system developed by Greg “the prowler” Wilczynski. A medalist in world ice fishing competitions, Greg spent years refining his invention. Look for Greg’s seminars throughout the north country.

Ice Rod Strike Indicator System – How it Works:
Features
Features
St. Croix’s strike indicator system is adjustable, so its sensitivity level can accommodate different lure sizes. To make the bobber more sensitive, push the spring forward through the grommet. To make it less sensitive, push it back.
Super-finesse, high-tension, stainless-steel strike indicator with 24-carat gold plating.
Solid carbon blank for extreme sensitivity and durability.
(illustration no. 1)
Fully adjustable and interchangeable spring indicator system.
Traditional cork handle.
Illustration No. 1
The system is most sensitive when there is a 30-degree bend (position 2) in the spring. To find the bottom, lower the jig until the indicator returns to position 1. Then, either slowly reel up once or lift the rod slightly until the indicator is back to position 2.
PUSH TO ADJUST SENSITIVITY
