Product Description
Crafted from Okuma's latest IM-8 graphite, the Guide Select Series of Fly Rods are versatile, moderate-fast rods packed full of features. These rods are highlighted by Okuma's Evo Graph reinforced graphite weave which strengthens the rod blank from the butt to tip while keeping the overall weight to a minimum. The blanks are matte black in color with a matching matte black carbon fiber reel seat inserts and black chrome hardware. From the delicate 7' 6" 3 weight to the powerful 9' 0" 12 weight, the Guide Select Series features a wide selection of rods to fit your angling needs. All rods come with a custom cordura covered rod tube and are backed by Okuma's lifetime warranty.
This review is from: Okuma Guide Select Spey Rod (Sports)
These guide select rods are not what you would expect from Okuma, Okuma makes some good equipment and fly reels, but there guide select fly rods are just mediocre at best, these rods need to go back to the drawing board and start with a better rod blank and add more guides per ft, these rods are over priced and under powered, difficult to roll cast or get any distance with this fly rod, it is a good looking fly rod but does not perform well, you are much better off with a st croix or echo or fenwick.
