The English expression "being stoked" (meaning "to be excited") perfectly captures our reaction when we first held this rod in our hands—especially with regard to its impressive performance, which no one would have expected at this price point. With the Stoked single-handed fly rod, the Scandinavian cult brand Guideline has undeniably set the bar extremely high for the lower price segment!
Its modern carbon fiber blank, based on the proven construction of the Guideline Elevation series, offers a very sensitive, medium-fast action. In addition, it combines impressive lightness with excellent stability. This makes the Stoked fly rod a versatile all-round performer, ideal for a flexible and varied fishing experience. We quickly discovered this versatility while fishing for pike, as the rod effortlessly cast different fly lines and streamers over long distances. Beyond its outstanding performance and quality, we are impressed by its modern, eco-conscious production, which sets new standards in many ways. For example, it features an ECO-poxy coating, and the high-quality rod tube and fabric case are mostly made from sustainable and recycled materials. Guideline’s approach with the Stoked reflects a commitment to environmental responsibility, achieved without compromising performance—even at a very attractive price.
With the Guideline Stoked single-handed fly rod, the name truly says it all, as we are thrilled in every way. In other words: we are absolutely STOKED!
