Though bamboo has been the traditional material for making fly fishing rods, graphite and fibre glass has changed the way how fly fishers cast the flies. The key benefit of graphite fly fishing rods is that they are extremely light and enhances the chances of catching fish. Rotating the flies and making them look realistic becomes very easy with a lighter rod which is exactly what graphite manages to achieve. Apart from the weight, graphite is also a pretty tough substance which makes it easy to make long rods without the fear of getting damaged easily.

Graphite fly fishing rods are also the most expensive rods one can find and can very well go up to four thousand dollars when you check out the premium range. Though fibre glass tends to give similar benefits, the satisfaction of using a graphite rod is something worth experiencing. According to user reviews, graphite rods can support long distance throws and going up to nine or ten feet is a cake walk with it. Since graphite is a tough substance, you can enjoy pulling in a really big fish with it without having to worry about the rod breaking. In fact, a longer graphite rod only means more fishing fun and you can really enjoy a long day of fly fishing without being very tired.

Most premium fly fishing rods are being made from lightweight material and the graphite ones are definitely going to make all the difference to the fishing experience. Do make sure that you avoid the 7-weight graphite fly fishing rod as that is the one which seems to have some issues especially when it comes to catching the bigger fish. Other than that, all graphite rods spanning more than nine feet do fine and is something that you would happily carry it around even if it is to show off a bit! Some of the better brands of fly fishing rods which you can consider are Fenwick which is one of the first companies to manufacture graphite rods, Gatti Fly Rods which is from Italy and offers excellent graphite rods and Redington Fly Rods and Reels which is a fairly new entrant in this market.
