New St. Croix rod series(icast 2024)

[bass raider]

These look very interesting. Sc3 blanks and traditional reel seats! https://www.bassresource.com/bass_fishing_123/st-croix-black-bass-62024.html

Looks like the line slots between bass x and mojo, always good to have more budget options

But EVA instead of Cork for the main part of the handles....oh well...at least it looks to have a round handle instead of that (for me) uncomfortable Trigon thing.

I'm not sure I've ever seen a Croix with a foam handle before. Is this a first?

No - the Trout series also has EVA handles...so it's not a new thing from them.

Looks like thats the series that will replace Bass X.  Hopefully they don't goof up the blanks like the whole Mojo inshore catastrophe.

Wouldn't surprise me if the blanks are the same as the current mojo just different guides and handles

I heard the LTB was redone this year. And once again nothing new for the Avid line.

Didn’t they just redo the LTB last year?

[PaulVE64]

I thought they just added the glass rods.

No,?

Targeting the $150-$175 price range market or entry level plus bass anglers.

Nearly every model has a 2 piece option tells you all you need know.

Nylon reel seat/handle in lieu Kevlar?

Yeah, its probably the same lineup, they just added 2pc options like the old mojos.

Unless there's a serious issue with LTB you won't see a new gen of them for 2 or 3 years at least.

Some decent looking length/power options in the lineup. I might end up checking these out if the actual sale price is lower than MSRP, which they often are.

Love the fact that there is so many 2-piece options being given. Big fan of the recent stuff Croix has put out (especially Physyx) so I look forward to this.
