"I use St. Croix Premiers as my guest rods while guiding smallmouth trips on the New River in WV. The updated model is lighter, faster, and less tip heavy than previous generations. I love my Avids and Legends, but there's nothing I need a rod to do that a Premier can't handle. Add in the fact that they're made in the USA and it's a no brainer!"
"I was trying to retrieve a snag and working it with my wrist. The rod snapped about 14 inches from the handle, with 4lb berkley trilene. I couldn't believe what happened. I bought this premier 5' rod about 6 years ago. It replaced a 4'6" model i had used for 22 years, I lost that rod on a kayaking trip. I'm lead to believe the quality of craftsmanship has dwindled in the past decade or so. . . It's a shame."
"I love the 2026 updates to the Premiers! GREAT rods."
"This rod is perfect for bluegills & crappies"
"I have 12 St Croix Rods and love everyone of them"
"This is my third Premier rod and it’s as good as the other two. Excellent action and workmanship."
"My premier fishing rod, I love it very well made"
"It’s lovely. I haven’t taken the opportunity to use it yet."
"Very durable when it comes to those moments when you drop it or when those other rods would break,floats too so you don’t have to suffer losing 500$."
"high quality - what I ordered"
