The ultimate crossover rod for effortless casting on any New Zealand river.
The Guideline ULS Hybrid Fly Rod 10ft #8 is the perfect solution for anglers who refuse to be limited by their gear. By blending the precision of a single-hand rod with the power and versatility of a switch setup, this rod excels whether you're targeting big trout in tight, tree-lined backcountry rivers or casting from the bank for larger migratory species. Its unique, deep-flexing action is incredibly forgiving, allowing you to master single-hand spey casts with ease and giving you that extra time to plan your presentation when it matters most.
Engineered with a high-strain, low-resin blank, the Guideline ULS Hybrid Fly Rod 10ft #8 feels feather-light in the hand at just 132g, meaning you can cast all day without fatigue. The non-glare, satin matte black finish ensures you won't spook wary fish, while the non-tangle stripper guides allow your line to shoot smoothly for those long-distance shots. Whether you’re running a ULS line or your favourite short-head WF setup, this 4-piece rod offers the performance and reliability you need to get sorted for your next big trip. It comes complete with a matching rod bag and protective tube, making it the perfect travel-ready companion for your next remote fishing adventure.
