St. Croix Premier Glass Rods-Discontinued?

Does anyone know if this is true?

I bought a St. Croix Premier glass rod @ Gander this spring (only one on the rack) and have really loved it for trolling (leadcore and longline) on the river. Most all my fish caught trolling during this season have come on this rod. For me, it has the right amount tip action to monitor a ticking crank, but with a slow flex that handles the leadcore well and quite solidly registers a strike.

I sometimes go to Gander over my lunch hour and have kept an eye for another one, since I’d like to have a set for when a non-trolling buddy or my son comes along.

I was @ Cabelas in Prairie last night and while waiting for them to pull an order I asked if they had any. They didn’t. Furthermore, the salesman said that they were discontinued and were not getting anymore. Please say it isn’t so!

I’m not sure Joe,they do still advertise them on their website Premier Cast but here is there toll free # 800-826-7042

give them a call and I’m sure they will answer all of your questions….

NOOOOOOOOO….say it aint so! Thats the best trolling rods Ive ever owned!

I’ll have to give ‘Croix a call. I have seen them at different tackle dealers online, so they must still be available; and they are still being listed as in stock. If anyone hears anything, let us know! I’ll pass on any info I come across.

I guess I should also be a little more specific on rod model. I am using the crankbait glass rod in a trolling application, but I like the way it handles the leadcore, for whatever reason.
