Skeet , I have five of the 6’6” St Croix lights , two Premiers (2 piece) 2 Triumphs (1piece) , and a two piece Triumph . They’re probably my favorite rods . I bought the Premiers when Dick’s Sporting goods had them on clearance a few years back . Think I paid $40 each for them .
St Croix has recently redone the Triumphs and I’ve ordered a one piece 6’6” Triumph . I’m sure it’ll probably feel the same as my others , but I couldn’t resist .
I have a one piece 6’ Avid UL that’s a sweet rod , I’d like to have an Avid in a 6’6” light . It would be a tad lighter than the Premiers and the Triumphs .
Guess you can tell I’m a St Croix fan .
