I will be updating information on this rod as I get more time fishing with it. Below are my initial thought of the GLASSFIN fiberglass BFS rod:

BLANK: Blank is made of a an almost two year process of refining the fiberglass materials to attain a responsive, lightweight and flexible taper that retains backbone. I found the blank to have all of those qualities

GUIDES: Fuji Stainless Steel Alconite. Basic guides that get the job done. I have many custom rods with Alconites. I believe guides provide the least "cost to performance" of major components and upgrades are used to raise rod prices.

REEL SEAT: Looks proprietary. Metal trigger is comfortable and reel seat is comfortable. Wood insert is a nice touch. Wood is smooth and is seamless with the metal parts of the reel seat. Wood has a slight taper for increased comfort.

GRIP: Grip is made of decent quality cork. I will report long term condition of cork after more use.

Only real downside of this rod is the epoxy work with the ferrules. There is A LOT of extra epoxy inside the blank where the ferrule is inserted into the blank. I communicated this to Dan Kung and they told me they would refine that process for production.

Overall good quality fiberglass rod for finesse stream fishing. The versatility I think is what surprised me the most.
