Got the 8' St. Croix yesterday. 4 wt is gonna be a ball with some bull gills. cant wait. One thing I like about the 4 piece is I can put it in the car and if I happen upon a lake or pond its ready to go.
Here we are one month after your purchase, do you have a review for us? I find myself in a similar situation but I am looking for a slightly lighter rod 2/3wt. I am highly considering a St. Croix, which model did you go with? I'm eyeballing the legend elite series but that's a lot of coin for a rod only.
A couple of guys at my local Bass Pro were raving about the 6' 2wt:
St. Croix Rods | Imperial | Fly Fishing
I'd prefer the 7' 3wt, but it's your choice.
