braided fishing line<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Not a budget option<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span id=\"Review\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Review<\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span id=\"Construction_craftsmanship_make_quality\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Construction (craftsmanship, make quality)<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">This fishing rod makes it a point to offer outstanding strength with its blank design but also aims to find the balance between strength with sensitivity.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">This process begins with the employ of premium quality, carbon fiber rod blanks that further reinforce this general durability with extra strength thanks to the flex coat slow-cure finish.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">However, this pole doesn&#8217;t just give you a bit of flex coat and hope for the best as it doubles up over itself, allowing one coat of the resin to completely cure before adding another coat.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Granted, with SCII carbon fiber graphite design&#8217;s advanced, performance-inspired design, you certainly don&#8217;t have to worry about blank strength.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">That said, St. Croix&#8217;s advanced blanks may provide unparalleled strength within its class, but they do not use some of the more advanced construction processes that you might see on other rods.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">It should also be noted that raw material used undergo the appropriate tempering so the high-grade materials of the blank live up to their billing.<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"Length\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Length<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Generally, rod length is not one of the major factors to consider outside of making sure that you get one that provides the perfect length for your needs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">However, the Premier&#8217;s spinning lineup exceeds all expectations with a wider range to choose from than virtually any other maker or model on the market today.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">For example, within the Premier&#8217;s spinning lineup, even the 2-piece SCII carbon blank construction comes in a wider range than you might expect with only the two shortest not offering two-piece models.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Even better, the graphite design doesn&#8217;t lose additional strength despite two-piece constructions thanks to the quality material used for its advanced blanks.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"Material\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Material<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">This is really where the pole earns its keep with an advanced carbon fiber composition for the blank material.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Compared to other rod materials, the Premier&#8217;s mid modulus graphite blank and advanced reinforcing technology impart strength with sensitivity for next-level performance&#8211; but it doesn&#8217;t just end with the blank.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">These spinning rods feature guides with aluminum oxide, and while that may not necessarily meet the same standard of unparalleled strength as the blank, it allows for smooth, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.outdoorsniagara.com\/why-does-my-fishing-line-get-tangled-when-i-cast\/\">tangle-free casting<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">It also doesn&#8217;t hurt that the reel seats are also made of carbon fiber, providing a firm base that still transfers the slightest vibration when a fish strikes.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"Action\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Action<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">A fishing pole&#8217;s action often comes in a single taper outside of maybe one alternative depending on the rod length, and this pole follows the trend.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">That said, you can still get a rough idea of a Premier&#8217;s action by power so long as you remember that any of these options will only deviate from the general standard if they use a light or ultralight power.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Specifically, only the light or ultra-light power model may also be a moderate action spinning rod, which requires a bit more experience to use properly than the others.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Still, whichever action rod you choose, the premium quality and exclusive technologies all contribute to a pole that casts smoothly and accurately with a wide range of baits.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"Power\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Power<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">As will become expected with the Premier, you certainly don&#8217;t have to worry about a lack of options, and this pole offers a wider range of power specs than most.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">A great example of this is how the St. Croix comes in power settings from the delicate ultra-light to the extra heavy power model&#8211; though not all of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.outdoorsniagara.com\/st-croix-premier-casting-rod-review\/\">casting models<\/a> come in every power setting.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">However, this variety of choices affords you the ability to carefully select the hook-setting power that works best for the type of fish you&#8217;re trying to catch.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">On top of that, the design combined with the quality material used for the rod blank also gives you a touch of wiggle room, allowing a medium-light power rod to still work with bass fishing&#8211; though saltwater fishing is a bit of a stretch.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"Taper\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Taper<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Most of the time, when you want to know about a pole&#8217;s taper, you just look at the rod&#8217;s action and determine where it bends along the blank&#8217;s length.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">However, the Premier goes a step above and beyond once again thanks to its Advanced IPC Integrated Poly Curve taper enhancement technology&#8211; one of many proprietary technologies used.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The integrated Poly Curve ensures that the mid modulus graphite blank doesn&#8217;t have to worry about any &#8220;dead zones&#8221; along the pole when casting.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">All combined, this approach not only improves the pole&#8217;s sensitivity for the surest hook sets but also increases <a href=\"https:\/\/www.outdoorsniagara.com\/st-croix-triumph-casting-rod-review\/\">your casting accuracy<\/a> regardless of which action you choose&#8211; including the slower actions.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"Rod_Guides\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Rod Guides<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.outdoorsniagara.com\/ugly-stik-elite-spinning-rod-review\/\">These spinning rods<\/a> feature Kigan Master Hand 3D aluminum oxide guides which are not only made of high-grade materials but also come with a Kigan hook-keeper.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">That said, the Kigan Master Hand 3D guides with slim, strong aluminum-oxide rings are high-grade components in their own right and help contribute to the pole&#8217;s legendary performance.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Still, the Kigan Master Hand 3D, slim, strong aluminum-oxide rings aren&#8217;t perfect as they suffer a bit with heavy lures, determined by the lure weight.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">However, this has more to do with aluminum guides&#8217; strength, in general, though you should still be able to a range of baits from spinner baits to chatter baits.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">It also doesn&#8217;t hurt that the black aluminum oxide guides look as sleek as the guides with aluminum oxide feel when casting and further improve an already excellent product.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"Handle_material_shape_etc\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Handle (material, shape, etc)<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The Premier fishing pole uses premium-grade cork handles, so you can rest assured that you start out with a firm, comfortable grip.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">However, the cork grip handle is even more convenient when you consider that it allows you to maintain a firm grasp even in wet conditions&#8211; the exact kind of conditions you expect to find on open waters.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Still, the cork grip handle employs a split design with frosted silver hoods that accept almost any size reel without issue.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Even better, this cork grip handle comes in 7 different handle options, though sadly not every rod model offers all of the handle options.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Still, a cork handle tends to be the choice in terms of all-purpose fishing.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"Type_of_Rod\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Type of Rod<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Not every <a href=\"https:\/\/www.outdoorsniagara.com\/st-croix-avid-casting-rod-review\/\">casting rod works the same<\/a>, but spinning rods tend to be some of the easier to use&#8211; especially when it comes to casting.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Unlike a baitcasting rod, spinners require significantly less control during the release to prevent the line from tangling and ensure that you cast with the kind of accuracy and distance you want.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">This means that a spinning rod works as well in the hands of an experienced angler as a beginner when compared to bait casters.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">However, spinners also provide a much stronger base to fish from as the line travels across the top of the pole, using the pole itself as a brace when bending and flexing.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"Reel_and_Real_Seat_Compatibility\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Reel and Real Seat Compatibility<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The spinning rods feature a high-quality FUJI DPS reel seat that is so much more durable than the soft plastic used by lesser competitors that it almost doesn&#8217;t bear mentioning.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">However, when compared to other mid to high-tier fishing poles, the Premier still comes out a little bit ahead of some of the competition in many instances.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">This advantage comes about due to how the high-quality FUJI DPS reel seat locks in place with a traditional locking bolt.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">This may not make disassembling the reel seat easier but ensures the seat keeps a tighter grip on the reel.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"Warranty\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Warranty<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">While certainly not a budget spinning rod, the Premier still comes with a 5-year warranty, though that is on the average side (and certainly not as good as some of the competition).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Part of the issue, aside from the fact that it&#8217;s not longer, is that you also have to pay for shipping&#8211; and the cost of shipping depends on whether you upgraded the warranty further or not.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"Conclusion_Wrap_Up\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Conclusion (Wrap Up)<\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The Premier is an American-made fishing rod with a blend of premium components that is often a top choice for premium fishing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Its slim, strong aluminum-oxide rings are not only reasonably strong but provide some of the smoothest casts you&#8217;ve ever felt while the spinning seat helps prevent the rings from separating from the inserts.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">These spinning rods feature a Kigan hook-keeper, so you don&#8217;t have to worry about the lure snagging on anything when you aren&#8217;t casting it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">On top of that, the rod materials are top-notch with SCII mid modulus carbon fiber doing most of the heavy lifting and reinforced with two coats of resin, so you don&#8217;t have to worry about losing any sensitivity.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The St. Croix Premier spinning rod lives up to its name by
