Legend Elite Freshwater

St. Croix Legend Elite Fly Rod – 9' 7wt

Product Description

The St. Croix Legend Elite 9' 7wt Fly Rod is a premium, American-built fly rod made for anglers who want power, feel, and accuracy in a versatile big-water setup. The 9' 7wt is a great choice for throwing streamers, bass bugs, light saltwater flies, heavy trout rigs, summer steelhead patterns, and larger flies where a 5wt or 6wt starts to feel under-gunned.

Redesigned for 2026, the Legend Elite series uses St. Croix’s advanced carbon construction, including high-modulus/high-strain SCIV and SCIII carbon, along with IPC mandrel tooling for smooth energy transfer, strength, and efficient recovery. The series is designed and precision-crafted in Park Falls, Wisconsin.

In the 9' 7wt configuration, this rod hits a sweet spot for Puget Sound beach fishing, bass, trout streamers, light steelhead, and travel. It has the backbone to turn over larger flies and handle wind, while still offering the refined feel and control that make the Legend Elite more than just a power stick.
