Guideline Elevation - Two-Handed Fly Rod

Guideline Elevation are super light and strong fly rods with a smooth, medium fast action for fly anglers of all levels. The production of this rod series takes place under sustainable forms and with the most environmentally friendly components we could find.

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. This line of rods is another step towards Guideline's goal of more sustainable products and will guide future rod production at Guideline. They have worked hard on the details of this series to develop a serious eco-conscious option for all fly anglers. In addition, they have introduced completely new technology and materials that make Elevation a modern 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 each rod section to make the Elevation rods as light as possible without compromising on the strength of the blades. The entire range is extremely light (9ft #5 weighs only 72g), responsive and the most solid rods in this class that we have ever made.

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, this is a state-of-the-art fly rod suitable for fly anglers of all levels.

Elevation 12' #7/8 and 13' #8/9: The lightest rods they make in these lengths and classes. Fast action with a compliant and responsive tip makes these rods very well suited for fishing small to medium salmon and sea trout rivers. Works great with all types of spey and underglove casts regardless of whether you use multi tip / sink tip or full sink lines.

Elevation 14' #9/10 and 15' #10/11: Powerful rods that handle all line types with elegance and with slightly stronger tips than the lighter models. They are designed to handle larger flies, more wind and heavier lines, but are incredibly light and well balanced at the same time.
