Location: Athens, Ohio | I'm looking for a new rod to pick up at the Ohio Musky Show. Any REAL benefit of the Legend over the Premier? I'm not against the extra money,as I keep my rods for a long time.
Also split grip handle vs. traditional handle - is either one better, why? |

| If you have the money... Spend it. The legend has lifetime warranty, premier has 5 yr. And the legend is lighter etc..., .
Both are nice, I have a few premiers, and an unfished 9' legend now...
Dont think either is a bad choice... |

Location: Smith Creek | XHF or HF? reason I ask is ripping pounders and such might be a little more comfortable with a full cork. I prefer a split grip for pulling 10's. I'd definitely go with the Legend, lighter and tougher, longer warranty. |

Location: midwest | Both are durable blanks. The LT's are lighter and have crisper actions while the Premiers tend to be a bit slower. The LT's should excell boatside with a thinner faster blank allowing you to turn corners faster in the eight with less tip deflection. The premier may have a benefit (being a slower blank and slightly more forgiving) in keeping lightly hooked fish pinned boatside. |
