Why Choose Fiberglass?

Posted on

We love modern fiberglass fly rods so much that we are making it our mission to share the experience with more people! 


Here are the highlight characteristics of the modern fiberglass fly rod:

 

1.  Tippet Protection on the set or during the fight. 

2.  You can feel the rod load/literally casts itself

3.  Leverage, especially on the heavy line weights and on big fish

4.  Durability of the material compared to graphite

5.  Great for learning how to cast 

6.  FUN to cast and fight fish on as rod bends well

7.  Loads well for short distances casts which fast graphite cant do

8.  Aesthetically Classic and colorful
