“Lovely little rod”
PRODUCT TEST: Snowbee Prestige G-XS Graphene 7ft 6in #1 fly rod
We gave our ambassador and England World Fly Fishing Team member this fantastic little rod to see what he thought, and was pleasantly impressed.
We paired it with the XS-Plus Thistledown 2 1-4wt fly line and a 9ft mono tapered leader.
As the little brother to his go-to 9ft 6in 3wt dry fly rod, it handles with the same qualities, just only lighter and shorter. It is perfect for enclosed, tree-lined rivers where presentation is key.
“If you were after a lot of for just a lovely days fishing, it feels like it could be the one.”
☝️ Oh, and right now, you can save £100‼️ off this fly rod until the 31st August 2026 in our HOT SUMMER SALE! Hurry while stocks last!

One photo... many outstanding products for bass fishing day trips 🐟 🌊
1. Stowaway Bag: This can accommodate all your 4-piece rods, reels, fly boxes, tipped and accessories and is perfectly practical to carry over your shoulder for long distances. It also perfect for bank or boat fishing for trout and reservoirs, or taking abroad concealed perfectly in the base of the XS Tavel Bag
2. Rockhopper boots: Newly updated in 2025, we don't think there is a better boot on the market for coastal fishing scenarios, where slippy rocks and dangerous unpredictable conditions combine. With multiple steel spikes in the base, they cut through w**d and grip on even smooth rock, offering phenomenal traction when you need it. Perfect for wet wading or wearing over stocking feet - size up for the latter
3. Spectre Pro 9ft #9: The EFFTEX-award winning fly rod is incredibly light for the power it produces. Turnover big flies and cast into wind with ease, and control predator fish like bass, pike or other species.
4. Spectre Pro Big Fly Fly Line: Launched in 2026, the multi-weight fly lines need to be tried to be believed. Following on from the same concept of the mush loved Thistledown2 fly line, these feature specialist tapers and coatings for casting big flies with minimal effort – especially into wind.
5. Prestige Technincal Fishing Shirt: protect from the UV rays whilst staying stylish and cool – what more do you want?
6. Spectre Sunglasses: Polarising to cut out glare on the water to spot fish and underwater topography better, at a very competitive price point.
