In this video I review the St. Croix Legend Tournament Pike Swimbait Special LTPC238XHF rod after putting it to the test for 14 days in Northern Canada – prime Northern Pike country!
The St. Croix Legend Tournament Pike Swimbait Special LTPC238XHF did an amazing job both casting lures and handling fish in prime pike country.
Equipment used:

6:50 – Final Thoughts
Which model do you think would be best for all round Pike fishing for bigger and smaller Pike?
Very similar rod is their 8' Legend Elite Musky. Held in hand both almost feel identical other than a price tag and Elite being ever so slightly lighter.
i just bought this reel and rod from watching your video. can i use j braid x8 instead of cortland master braid because its too expensive to ship to canada ?
What pound line do you use 80?
I am looking at picking up one of these rods for throwing whopper plopper 130 and 190 and spinnerbaits bucktails, I’ll take any input you could give on what model I should order
I saw the rod in action this week and it did great!
