Re: St. Croix Legend Xtreme 2020
Bump. Any new reports?
Re: St. Croix Legend Xtreme 2020
Just more of the same, awesome rods, the best overall IMO.
Re: St. Croix Legend Xtreme 2020
Bump for anything new especially with the 7’4” ?

Re: St. Croix Legend Xtreme 2020
My buddy fished the heck out of his 6'10" ML spinning Xtreme on the St. Lawrence this week and he is still blown away by the sensitivity.
Re: St. Croix Legend Xtreme 2020
Hey norbi, welcome! JEEZ! Do I wait for the new NRX, or just go ahead a snatch up that 7'4" Heavy...
Re: St. Croix Legend Xtreme 2020
Is anyone throwing braid to leader with these rods? If so, how is it working out? I'm wondering about guide sizing.
thanks
thanks
Re: St. Croix Legend Xtreme 2020
Thank you! Was hoping to hear that.
A Dobyns Xtasy 755 just showed up at my door. Think I’ll order this Xtreme 7’4”, compare the two and make a decision.
Wish they made a longer model.

Re: St. Croix Legend Xtreme 2020
Am I the only one that heard bad things about these? A friend has a deal through Croix and said the shimano Andrea blows it away. He got a casting and spinning model to test and hated them to the point he turned them back in and told the rep that who ever designed it must have been high and drunk. I have not handled one myslef yet tho.

Re: St. Croix Legend Xtreme 2020
I've heard mixed reviews on these rods overall, and repeated disappointment over the heavier power rods in the series. A friend says his Legend Elite is more sensitive than the 2020 Extreme. He says the Extreme is crazy-light, though.
Try not to let your mind wander. It is much too small to be outside unsupervised.
Re: St. Croix Legend Xtreme 2020
oh wow. i wonder if it's like nrx, in that some models are noticeably more sensitive than others

I’m waiting to see the TT in depth review
Hopefully that will give more insight
