Quick on the water review of the 2020 St. croix Legend Xtreme rods. Models XFS610MLf and XFC70MF. perhaps I will make a more detailed review in the future.
I went with the xfs68mxf and elected to pair it with the cts3000xgfl. Spooled it with straight 10 pound tatsu. Use it for walleye fishing and couldn't be happier. Great review.
Is the spinning heavy fe long like casting I wanna get a new high end spinning rod this year when ever I go back to work and the virus is gone bulllshit
I have the new Xtreme - same as yours. I also have the same rated Legend Elite. Love the Extreme because I am a stickler on rod balance. The balance point on the Xtreme is over 3" closer to the seat than the Elite. Yes, the Extreme is a couple tenths heavier than the Elite but feels much lighter because of the better balance. I am looking for a deal on the new Metanium but so far the street price is about the same as the Antares 70. Great review and thanks for doing.
Rapalaman Just get a jdm metanium from digitaka or one of those sites. Got my 20 met for just a hair over $300 👌 I think there are a few up on eBay at the moment around that price, too.
I have the 7’1” medium heavy extra fast caster version of the st croix xtreme. Am I limited to only using it with baitcaster reels or can I put a spinning reel on there?
I have both too and honestly I enjoy my Daiwa Tatula Elite AGS rod just as much of not better. Simply because it’s $230 instead of $640 and has basically the same components. If your not a tackle snob like me who only pairs up like brands. No Shimano Reel on Daiwa rods vise versa.
@@EngineeringHooksets Sweet, you can repeat a name and type it incorrectly. Congrats! Maybe wear a hat and stop eating lead, you might actualize your 100 IQ.
Good review buddy!! I’ve been thinking about those rods!

Great vid, saw you had some NRX rods how does it compare?
which model is more suitable for twitching 130mm wobblers LXC68MXF ? LXC68MHF?
Does anyone know why this rod is not rated for salt? What makes it freshwater only?
I have the 7’1” medium heavy extra fast caster version of the st croix xtreme. Am I limited to only using it with baitcaster reels or can I put a spinning reel on there?
How are the guides on the spinning model? Are they micro?
Just picked one up and can’t wait to break it in
Keystone State Fishing cool. what model did you get? let us know how you like it
Joe....please take me fishing.....
Wonder how it compares to a steez ags
What is the test for this rod?
Better than legend tournament?
Can u use that casting rod in Saltwater
can it be used in saltwater?
Did you say, "gooder"?
I’ve been eyeing that reel but worried about the weight. I heard it’s small & palms good, how does it feel on that lightweight rod?
LIVING LIFE i absolutely love the reel. favorite reel of all time. highly recommend for anyone considering.

Not only that, sensitivity on Tatula elite ags is insane at that price.
that damn handle bump is STILL a turn off!i guess ill keep using loomis castijng rods and croix spinning rods..disappointing
You sound so unexcited about the rod lol
Joey Foreman i guess you tend to lose excitement down the line when you’re always getting super high end tackle for free.
Lots of people feel excitement without it being obvious to those around them lol.
There is no way in hell this is better than any other $200 rod lol. Nice review though
You're clueless about rods then.
@@HanSoloxcs lol okay there "sOloXfURy"

lol everyone with the vandam super power hookset, just ridiculous..
there was never a better reel seat than the old loomis low-rider!it sux they went away from it!
These don't compare to the nrx. I have both.
In my opinion: st croix rods are good. But Kistler rods are better!
Too short.
Hope you are not pro staff because not doing a good job.
