I made the decision recently to become a global brand ambassador for Guideline. The company has a great team of passionate designers, with one being a world champion fly caster, so the rod reel and line design is second to none. The clothing range is stylish, robust and highly functional, and the company adheres to an Eco-friendly stance and use recycled materials throughout the range they produce.
We take a quick look here at a couple of the rods and reels in the lineup, as myself (Mike Kirkpatrick) Hans Kreuer and 11 times national fly fishing champion, Cory Scott put them through their paces on a late season back country stream.
All three of us are Guideline Brand Ambassadors and all gear worn here is GL.

Great value rods. Has quality like most well known brands, but better price. Will bring my LPX Tactical to NZ in a few months. I can also see the ULS (hybrid) system would work well on some medium sized rivers, with a mix of short and longer (spey) casting. When distance is not the most important, the ULS system is very practical. I would especially bring it for big rainbows on the North Island. Next time, maybe...

@mikefsher Год назад

Absolutely. Youll have fun in the central NI with GL gear

@ameliaswarbrick1627 Год назад

awesome video.. great fishing

@mikefsher Год назад

Thanks Amelia!

@HighcountryFlylife Год назад

Great film once again and capturing all the finer details of the Guideline gear. I believe it's reasonably priced when compared with your predecessor in Scott, but still equally as good quality wise in your mind? I love the fario reel. GL will become more and more popular, no doubt throughout New Zealand. And your posts and video clips of this will help with that. Nice job by yourself, as always, Hanz and Corey, showcasing what this gear has to offer.

@mikefsher Год назад

Cheers matey! The Guideline rods aren't just as good, for me, theyre even better. Listen, all top rod manufacturers make quality gear, otherwise they wouldnt be successful. Its just the rods from Guideline fit me perfectly. They strike a blend of casting, not only long but short very well, mend well and have feel and protect lighter tippets. They are true 'fishing' rods. They are sort of the lovechild of a Scott Radian and Winston Air, giving you the best of both worlds. Add to that theyre between 20 and 30 percent cheaper... no contest. You gotta try one buddy. Plus theyre nicer to look at, just beautifully made. My opinion anyway.

@HighcountryFlylife Год назад

@mikefsher I will certainly try one. The key ingredients for me that turns my head are the nice balance of casting short and long range, add to that, it protects the light tippets which is really important.

@tomrivera8480 Год назад

But Mike, what about your Scott!!??? Haha good stuff thank you sir!

@mikefsher Год назад

Yeah theyre nice rods, but GL rods are as nice to cast at a lower price point. Try one buddy!

@powderman38 Год назад

Hi Mike, awesome film ! About guideline, I’m looking for a rod leaning more on the scott G series action than on the fast action. Maybe the « tactical » series of rod ? At the opposite of the spectrum, the coastal 9’3 6wt seems nice for more heavy work.

@mikefsher Год назад

Hi mate thanks for that! The entire Guideline rod range is nothing short of sensational. Either the NT 11 or Tactical but I'd suggest the Tactical if you want more a G Series feel. These are some of lightest and pure actioned rods I've used. I have the Coastal 908 and it's superb. The 9'3 6wt would be great. As a surprise package, the GL Predator series is an eye opener. Designed for more bass and pike, it's the lightest fast actioned ros I've used. Period.

@powderman38 Год назад

Thanks for your advice. I Hope one day we could share some time hunting big fish in NZ…

@kieranfsher4410 Год назад

Lovely video and fishing on a high country stream. GL gear looks like a winner. Are you intending to make films still with the audio of nature, sounds of the river and the banter between you guys on the river by fishing in general?

@mikefsher Год назад

Hi, yeah its just a mix of styles designed to fit the particular type of clip. I think they all have their place and some will suit one style and others a different one. In short, yep ill likely be making more content with the anglers miced up or shotgun mic capturing all the sounds

@kieranfsher4410 Год назад

@mikefsher I like this style too. I enjoy listening to you guys on the river. I just love feeling the experience of the river chats and nature as I eluded to even from my lounge. Bring on the next one 💪

@gobblerz7440 Год назад

Awesome video Mike - do you have any companies you buy flys from that you trust? Or do you tie them all? I’ve been bending out too many hooked

@mikefsher Год назад

Tie most myself. I use Kamasan or Tiemco.

@NeilgRichardson Год назад

Another cracker Mike, you manage to showcase the best of NZ, its people and some top-quality fishing with top quality gear.

@mikefsher Год назад

Thanks so much! Yep, great fishing with great gear is hard to beat...

@MrKveite1 Год назад

I rarely fish 1 handers but it's hard to find better rods for the price than Guideline rods.

@mikefsher Год назад

Indeed sir, indeed!

@nzadventurer Год назад

Who is the New Zealand distributor for #guideline? Not manic is it?! Looks like mint gear

@mikefsher Год назад

Flytackle NZ - it states it during the clip intro. Sporting Life in Turangi stock GL gear as do Fishermans Loft in Christchurch. It is indeed mint gear
