St. Croix Introduces Two New RIP-N-CHATTER RODS
2020 Legend Glass & Mojo Bass Glass models for crankbaits, rattlebaits and Chatterbaits
Park Falls, WI (March 12, 2019) – Building on extensive customer feedback, St. Croix is proud to introduce two rods designed specifically for fishing crankbaits, rattlebaits and Chatterbaits—techniques seeming to get more play day after day for their near magical fish-catching potential.
“As more and more anglers from coast to coast utilize these techniques we started to hear that glass rods designed specifically for the approaches were needed. Our response? Set about designing them as soon as possible and utilize our extensive testing machinery inside and outside the factory to fine tune them to fish like no other rods had before for lipless crankbaits, Chatterbaits, and more,” says Jesse Simpkins, Director of Marketing, St. Croix.
The feedback from testers was strong. Throughout the extensive testing stages, the rods proved highly effective for ripping lipless or lipped crankbaits out of vegetation and outstanding for throwing both swim jigs and Chatterbaits. Additionally, testers Carter and Rose Lee Koza won two tournaments throwing Chatterbaits on the prototype Legend Glass LGC72HM.
So, without further ado, meet the Legend Glass LGC72HM casting rod, a 7’2” heavy power, moderate action Chatterbait weapon comprised of super premium linear S-glass, with a price tag of $260.
Fans of Chatterbaits and rattlebaits should also rejoice over the Mojo Bass Glass MGC72HM / RIP-N-CHATTER, a 7’2” heavy power, moderate action stick with a real-world $160 price tag, making the rod within reach of anglers on all budgets.
