model number on st croix rods St. Connect Fly Rod (5wt, 8ft 6in) this newest generation of St St. Croix Rod Review -

Rods were generally made in three pieces called a butt, midsection, and tip

The Frost trigger is easy to grab with one finger, and the jigs go down without any effort, though you may want to adjust the spool tension knob depending on if youre using 5mm jigs versus 3mm or even 2.5mm jigs

An inline hook is not offset, meaning the hooks point, barb and shank are all on the same plane

Its responsive backbone catapults bait over impressive distances

And anyone who can get through a large guide like this probably has a little more focus and mettle than most
