The modernized and expanded St. Croix TRIUMPH Family for 2027 also includes TRIUMPH INSHORE rods + combos + travel rods + travel combos
PARK FALLS, WIS. (July 9, 2026) – No, when St. Croix Rod improved and expanded its massive and top-selling TRIUMPH Family, they didn’t forget about inshore… they doubled down on it.
Inshore anglers largely appreciate the same things as freshwater anglers – quality, performance, and value, namely. And they also want a recognized brand that stands behind its products. That’s precisely why TRIUMPH INSHORE has been so popular with anglers and successful at retail. Because they’re available in the lengths, powers, and actions inshore anglers want; they’re built start-to-finish from premium carbon fiber and other high-quality materials; they are perfectly handcrafted and finished by 32 sets of St. Croix hands to the highest standards of quality in the world; anglers can afford them; and they come with a five-year warranty backed by St. Croix and its full-time staff of in-house angler guides in Park Falls, Wisconsin, USA.
Now, the TRIUMPH INSHORE Series offers inshore anglers more than ever before. It’s been modernized and greatly expanded for 2027 with the addition of TRIUMPH INSHORE TRAVEL rods, TRIUMPH INSHORE Combos, and TRIUMPH INSHORE Travel Combos. Combo options come precision-matched with a premium high-performance SEVIIN TYDRIX saltwater spinning reel.
