The Stuff of Wonder, Graphene Infused G-Rods

Image

Introduction: It is rare that a new rod company offers something really unique to show us at ICAST but that is exactly what happened when we came across G-Rods at ICAST. The young rod company was at the show touting their use of graphene, a “wonder material” that I had heard of being used in semiconductors and Li-ion batteries before, but never before within a fishing rod. My interest was definitely peaked! At the show G-Rods was not just showing prototypes, they already had a complete arsenal of rods ready to hit the water. Fast forward two seasons and it is time to share our findings on this exciting fresh player in the rod market.

Interesting read and sharp looking rods. I'm glad Andre Geim and Konstantin Novoselov were awarded the Nobel Prize for discovering pencil lead. Also an 8 is missing from 3/8 on the rod's lure ratting. It reads 3/ - 1 1/4 oz.
