These Guideline NT11 fly rods are the result of taking advantage of the very latest and most state of art graphite materials. The most evident effect being an amazing recovery power and crispness in the blanks, created by combining the incredible armoring and strength increasing effects of T1100G graphite with layers of the highest modulus graphite Guideline have ever used in any flyrods to date. The lowest blank weight, yet the highest break strain of any other rod in the guideline line up.
