Easy to Cast & Confidence Inspiring
Guideline Rivolt has been designed to inspire confidence from the very first cast. Its progressive Mid / Tip Flex action loads smoothly and naturally, allowing anglers to feel the rod working throughout the entire casting stroke. This forgiving character makes Rivolt an excellent choice for anglers developing their casting technique, while experienced fly fishers will appreciate its predictable performance and versatility during everyday fishing.
The medium-fast recovery generates stable loops, excellent line control and smooth presentations with a wide variety of fly patterns. Whether you're fishing dry flies, nymphs or small streamers, Rivolt offers a well-balanced combination of sensitivity, control and reserve power for longer casts and more demanding fishing conditions without ever feeling overly stiff or difficult to cast.
Modern Construction & Reliable Components
The blank is built from a carefully selected combination of 24T and 30T carbon with a natural unsanded graphite finish. Besides giving the rod its distinctive appearance, the unsanded construction reduces unnecessary material, lowers tip inertia and improves the overall casting feel while maintaining excellent durability.
Each rod is fitted with a quality cork handle, an anodized aluminium reel seat and dependable stripping and Single Leg guides for smooth line flow and long-lasting performance. Every Rivolt rod is supplied with a 100% recycled cotton rod bag and a lightweight recyclable polypropylene rod tube covered with durable REPREVE™ recycled polyester, providing excellent protection during storage and travel while supporting Guideline's environmentally conscious design philosophy.
FlyFishing.bg Recommendation
If you're looking for one fly rod capable of covering the majority of trout fishing situations, the Guideline Rivolt 9' #5 is our top recommendation. It performs beautifully with dry flies, nymphs and small streamers, making it the most versatile model in the series. Anglers who primarily fish stillwaters or prefer the additional reach and line control of a longer rod should consider the 10' #6. For larger streamers, windy conditions or targeting bigger fish, the #6 and #7 models provide additional power while maintaining the smooth, forgiving casting characteristics that define the Rivolt series.
