A surf rod that excels in every way, the St. Croix Seage Surf Spinning Rod is built on a rugged, reengineered SCII carbon fiber blank that's significantly lighter and flexurally stronger than previous formulations, then finished with 2 coats of ultra-durable Flex-Coat slow cure. Along the way, St. Croix has added strategically placed ART and Veil reinforcement to ensure maximum impact protection, plus offset ferrules on the 2-piece models that create the feel and performance of a 1-piece rod. However, the advanced technology doesn't stop there; this amazing rod features top-line components from tip to butt. The Sea Guide Hero Hi-Grade SS316 stainless steel guides with slim aluminum oxide rings move even heavy braid with ease, ensuring long casts and smooth retrieves under load. Fitted with a Sea Guide NPS reel seat, X-Flock covered slim-diameter handle and Winn comfort foregrip. Manufacturer's 15-year warranty.
