St. Croix PHYSYX Series RodsSt. Croix PHYSYX Series Rods

St. Croix will introduce a new line of Phsyx rods at the 2024 Bassmaster Classic Outdoor Show in Tulsa, Ok.

The all-new series consists of 25 technique-focused freshwater rods, conceived in science to evolve and advance the angling experience.

What Makes PHYSYX Unique?

SCIV+ Carbon Fiber Blanks – You know SCIV+ from our 2023 Legend Tournament rods; they are among the lightest and best-balanced blanks ever produced in Park Falls. These hybrid carbon fiber blanks feature a distinct and exotic blend of SCIV and SCVI material on every different length, power, and action to create blanks that are exceptionally refined, balanced, light, strong, sensitive, and optimized for their intended techniques and presentations. Select moderate-action reaction-bait models have iACT Glass blanks, which are a hybrid layup of our SCIV+ and 100% linear S-glass materials.

Titanium Guides – All PHYSYX models receive premium, rigid titanium guides with silicon carbide rings. These advanced guide trains support maximum performance with all line types and further promote PHYSYX’s supreme balance.

High-Tactile TPU Grip Lines – Angler grip is enhanced in all weather conditions via strategically placed TPU grip lines that are molded into (not surface applied) PHYSYX’s handle. TPU is a unique thermoplastic polyurethane material featuring elasticity, transparency, and resistance to oils, grease, and abrasion. These TPU grip lines have been rigorously tested with respect to sunscreens, bug sprays, and other common chemical substances anglers come in contact with to ensure durability.

Molded Carbon Fiber TRIGON Handle – This is an evolution of the wildly popular and successful agglomerated cork TRIGON handle introduced last year on Mojo Bass. This rigid, molded carbon fiber version takes TRIGON’s benefits of dramatically increased comfort and control to all-new levels, offering superior energy transmission that has not been seen in a St. Croix handle since Gen-2 Xtreme Skin in the current-generation Legend Xtreme Series.

Molded Carbon Fiber DYNAMIX Reel Seat – The next-generation St. Croix DYNAMIX reel seat is stronger, lighter, and transmits energy better than the previous DYNAMIX reel seat, while blending seamlessly with the TRIGON handle to create the ultimate angler interface.

Rear Trigger – A unique rear-trigger design near the base of the handle on PHYSYX casting and spinning models works in conjunction with the primary TRIGON handle design to further promote control and accuracy during casting. This innovative design feature benefits all anglers but excels when making precise presentations to fish on live sonar.

25 Models – PHYSYX is a complete, technique-optimized freshwater series consisting of 17 casting models and 8 spinning models to guide anglers toward new levels of accomplishment and success. PHYSYX’s 25 models include existing angler favorites like the C70HF and C70MHMF, as well as new lengths, powers, and actions like the C76HMF.

15-Year Warranty – Designed and handcrafted in Park Falls, Wisconsin, USA, PHYSYX is backed by a 15-year warranty and St. Croix service.
