There are those who think cigars are good for keeping the mosquitoes away and those who appreciate the refined flavors of a well-crafted Cuban Romeo y Julieta…while it keeps the mosquitoes away. It is this rare breed of discriminating angler that will be unable to resist our new 2009 Legend Elite® freshwater series. Built from SC V graphite and marrying every imaginable technological advance available – such as our exclusive ART™ and IPC® – these are the most sensitive, fast-action fishing tools you can find. Amazingly enough, they are surely amongst the most classically styled beauties, as well. Suited in a gorgeous forest green pearl finish, trimmed in the highest-grade fittings and topped with a classic handle, they are, simply put, as good as it gets.
