Fiberglass Tenkara Rod - Makes for easy casting with light lines in very short lengths, this is a downfall for most carbon fiber short tenkara rods. Multi-Length Zoom Rod - so you can fish it fully extended in open casting areas or zoom it down one or two lengths when casting area is overgrown or very tight. The 3 Tip Sections are a Hybrid Fiberglass / Cabon Fiber material blend for best casting, hook set, and low oscillation. Very popular for fishing in the Appalachian mountain range or similar overgrown creeks and streams. IT IS FUN! - Gives you the joys of casting a glass style fly rod in a short tenkara rod. Fiberglass Hybrid Tenkara Rod - Short Tenkara Rods need to flex more than traditional carbon fiber tenkara rods can get a smooth cast with the short light lines. This Fiberglass Hybrid rod is mostly high quality S-Glass material but we added some carbon fiber in the tip sections to help reduce oscillation when casting. The marriage of these 2 materials in the FoxFIRE rod is fantastic!
