Dobyns Or St. Croix

Does anyone have an opinion: St. Croix Legend Tournament or Dobyns Champion

Both are fine rods. I really think you're going to get a lot of opinions here in a case where you can't go wrong with either. Generally, I like Dobyns because I feel like they balance better with my reels which makes for a better experience on the water for me. I haven't ever used an LTB because whenever I've mounted reels on them in store, they tend to be tip heavy, at least the models I've looked at. 

 

If you provide which model(s) you're looking at and which techniques you plan to use them for I think you will receive even better/more helpful advice from the members here.

I own and fish with both. Both great rods, my nod goes toward the Champion. Balances a lot better than the LTB. Both my LTB and the Champion are H models.

I own and use both regularly, both are very good rods.   I find the Champion to be only a little better than the Avid, and I give it that edge because of it's balance.  I personally find the LTB to be a notch above the Champion, based mostly on using it for bottom contact baits and what I perceive to be better sensitivity.
