Guideline Elevation - single handed fly rod

Guideline Elevation fly rods are cutting edge as they incorporate the latest in material and production technology, as well as being built with environmentally friendly components. Guideline has worked hard on the details of this series to develop a serious environmentally conscious option for all fly anglers. In addition, they have introduced completely new technology and materials that make Elevation a modern series that is at the forefront in all areas. New methods of developing blades allow Guideline to monitor durability and action curves in a very accurate manner. This allows them to eliminate unwanted material in every rod part to make the Elevation rods as light as possible without compromising the strength of the blades. The entire series is extremely light (9ft #5 weighs only 72g), responsive and the most solid rods in this class that Guideline has ever produced.

The action of the Elevation rod is characterized by a light and compliant tip with good stability followed by a smooth progressive bending curve down the blade. These are resilient and easy to cast rods that forgive a lot of casting errors and generate high line speeds. You get good contact with the entire blade on all types of casts. In conclusion, these state-of-the-art fly rods are suitable for fly anglers of all levels.

Elevation 9ft #4-5-6: Class #4 and #5 rods are typical all-around rods for trout, grayling and char fishing with nymphs, dry flies and lighter streamers. Line Weight #6 is the perfect choice for heavier flies, larger fish and waters that are more exposed to the elements.

Elevation 9ft #7-8-9: Typical rods for the heavier fishing for big trout, pike, sea trout and bonefish. These models are suitable for rivers, larger lakes, coastal and tropical fishing where large fish and demanding conditions are common. Unique balance and weight for rods in this category.

Elevation 9'9ft #6-7-8: Rods designed for both river and shore/lake trout, sea trout and salmon. The new 9'9" length is the best compromise between 9'6" and 10', it gives you the power of a 9'6 footer but the reach of a 10' footer. Lighter, more resilient and more compliant than a 10' rod.
