Guideline Elevation Fly Rod

Elevation Rods utilises the very latest in material and pattern technology, as well as featuring several more environmentally friendly components, these rods are revolutionary.

For the last couple of years, we have been on a journey towards more sustainable products at Guideline, and the Elevation rod series has been the benchmark for our future rod production. We have worked hard and into the details to do whatever is possible to make these rods the best choice for those anglers who care about the environment. The rod blank development process eliminates any unnecessary material in each section. It also gives us 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 we have created.

In general the rods have a sensitive and protective tip that is very stable and crisp, with a smooth progressive curve further down the blank with a powerful butt section. The action is easy to cast, forgiving and produce accurate casts at high line speed. The rods have great line feel and you will easily connect to the rod to all types of casts. Summed up these are top modern rods with light feel and an action that suits anglers at all levels.

• 9ft #4-5-6: The 4 and 5 wt are typical all-around trout rods for dries, nymphs, and lighter streamers. The 6wt is the choice for bigger flies, bigger fish, and windier conditions.
  
• 9ft #7-8-9: Typical rods for heavier fishing after migratory trout, pike, salmon, seatrout, and bonefish. These rods suit rivers, lakes, coastal, and flats fishing where big fish and demanding conditions are common. Unique balance and weight for rods in this category.
  
• 9'9ft #6-7-8: Rods made for both lake and river fishing after trout, seatrout, and salmon. The new length of 9'9ft is the ultimate compromise between 9'6 and 10ft. It gives you the power of the 9'6ft and the reach/distance of the 10ft. Lighter, crisper, and better feel than the 10ft.
  
• 10ft #6-7: Dedicated rods for "stillwater fishing," typical actions for the very popular lake fishing practiced by the British with a varied selection of lines in different densities and several flies on the leader. Please note that the 10´models are fitted with classic double leg snake guides.
