The best fly rod at this price point ever to hit the market, the Elevation is lightweight, super well balanced, with a crisp effortless action. An absolute dream to fish with.
Elevation Rods utilise the very latest in material and pattern technology, as well as featuring several more environmentally friendly components. These rods are revolutionary.
The journey towards more sustainable products at Guideline and this rod series will show the way for future rod production. The new rod blank development process eliminates any unnecessary material in each section. It also gives the possibility to monitor power in every part of the blank much more accurately than before. These rods are extremely light and responsive (9’ #5 is 72g/ 2,53oz), and yet the strongest standard rods Guideline have created.
