What it does very well is help the fly fisher make the cast. The "sloppy" graphite's do the same thing but not as well as fiberglass. The fast graphite's won't do for you what the Diamondglass rod does to help the caster. You won't find a better rod for the purposes it serves. From chasing Brookies in the Smokies Mountains, to the native trout of alpine streams and ponds of the Rockies. Then, too, there are those who cannot make the cast unless they feel the rod load. If you want a fly rod that gives you a handicap for successful fly fishing, you can't do better than the Diamondback Diamondglass. INDIVIDUAL ROD SPECIFICATIONS: 626621 - Model GLR502 (2 pc.)
