    What a cool rod! I got the 10wt for pike and its really fun. Casting a 10wt glass rod requires some practice but its a fun alternative to graphite. The durability is surprisingly high! If I had to choose one rod for pike fishing, I probably wouldn't choose a glass rod but I would certainly recommend adding one to your arsenal because its different and cool!

    Got one of these guys in the mail yesterday. It’s pretty! I got it to fish poppers for largemouth once it warms up, but I took it for a spin tonight. Got skunked, but that’s not the rod’s fault. I liked it! It’s powerful! I threw fairly bulky and heavy streamers the whole evening and could cast them pretty well and far. I struggled in the wind a bit, but that’s to be expected.

    Epic Flex

    I bought this 8wt rod for hunting bones on and the flats and boy do I not regret it. Bones can be super spooky but this Bad Ass Glass presents the fly so gently that this is perfect for bones. Also while fighting bones the rod tip almost bends to the butt, the flex on this is incredible and fishing bones with this is a ton of fun.

    Fun Glass Rod (8' 8wt)

    This is a fun rod. It isn't a do-it-all rod...but that isn't what I expected. It is certainly faster than I expected for a glass rod. It is on the medium side of medium-fast to me versus graphite. It can cast a surprising amount of line as well, and handled size 4 clousers all day long, throwing an outbound short 7 intermediate line. I am certain it can handle bigger flies with this line/rod combo as well. The 8' length makes the rod, as 9' of glass will get softer and heavier. It is a perfect specialty rod - It wouldn't be my go-to rod for steelhead/bonefish first day of a trip, but on the third day it would be fun to try and get this thing bent to the cork.

    Wonderful rod! Has what feels like a mid-fast action, casts well (not great caster but can do 80ft with it) has a lot of play for small fish, and power for the big guys!

    Color of the blank is beautiful. The cork is okay, it has a decent amount of filler. Bought this rod for big bass and inshore. A good value for an 8wt glass rod.
