Over the years, fly rod technology has taken occasional quantum leaps forward. First the move from split cane to fibreglass; then the next move to carbon fibre, and now, the latest development – Graphene! This amazing new technology really is a ‘game changer’ and with the Prestige G-XS range, propels Snowbee to the top of the leader board, in terms of performance and innovation.
Graphene was first discovered and isolated in 2010, by two researchers in the Physics Department of Manchester University, who went on to be awarded the Nobel Prize for Physics, for their discovery. Graphene really is a game-changer. In its raw form it consists of a two-dimensional, carbon sheet just one atom thick, yet 200 times stronger than steel! It is the lightest material on earth and at the molecular level, Graphene is one million times smaller than the diameter of a human hair!
Apart from its strength, another important feature of Graphene is its flexibility. In fly rod production, Graphene powder is added to the epoxy resins to enhance inherent properties such as tensile strength and flexibility.
A few years ago the latest technology was Nano Carbon rods. The principle was that the smaller, 'round profile' nano
molecules added to the epoxy resin, were able to penetrate every void within the carbon fibre mat, far better than long-chain epoxy resin molecules. This innovation to reinforce resins, created a prepreg material, with a flexural strength and modulus, far higher than that of conventional resin. This resulted in fly rod blanks that were lighter, crisper and more precise in action than anything previously achievable and a blank so close to 'unbreakable' in normal use as it is possible to achieve.
This principle has been taken one stage further, with the new Graphene resin technology, as Graphene atoms are 300 times smaller than the smallest nanoparticle, resulting in an even denser carbon mat, with virtually no air pockets, enhanced by the use of autoclave ovens, which ‘bake’ the blanks under high pressure, to further expel any air pockets.

Lightweight River Dry Fly & Nymph series: 9' 6" #3, 10' #2, 10' #3 and 11' #3
Our river dry fly and nymph rods are aimed squarely at the ‘light line’ specialist who has come to appreciate the need for sensitive control, and extreme accuracy with a feel to match, when ‘fishing light’. Originally developed in Eastern Europe, the longer, lighter styles of nymph fishing and dry fly rods have become increasingly popular for river fishing and the new Graphene material further enhances this. These rods lend themselves to effortless and untiring Czech and French nymphing techniques and the 9' 6" #3 weight model is the ideal rod for dry fly or dual purpose. These lighter options are all fitted with the European style tapered cork handle and burl wood collars.

The amazing Spectre® Fly Rod range, launched in 2017 and was then upgraded in 2019, incorporating the very latest American Tackle Microwave Stripper Guides for the ultimate line control performance!
Snowbee were the first UK Company to incorporate American Tackle’s sensational MW18 Microwave™ guide system designed for fly rods. The principle behind the Microwave™ guide system, being to reduce as much drag as possible from the rod and rings by aligning the line perfectly from the first stripper ring though all the rest. When a line shoots, it ideally has so little drag that it exits the tip ring at approximately 50-60 mph for maximum distance and the Microwave™ system provides this. Upon testing it was immediately evident how much straighter the final presentation was, allowing therefore not only increased distance, but also enhancing line control and accuracy at the same time.

Once again, Snowbee were the first company to embrace this new technology and the sensational new Spectre® RMX fly rod prototypes were shown at EFTTEX in Amsterdam and ICAST in Orlando in 2018.
The principle behind the Microwave guide system is really very simple. When a fly line shoots, it is leaving the rod tip at approximately 50-60 mph. In the ideal world there would be nothing to restrict this movement, allowing maximum line speed and distance. In reality, the friction through the rings, coupled with the ‘line-slap' as coils snake up off the ground or a stripping basket, reduce this line speed considerably, as using conventional stripper guides, the line coils are merely decreased, as they travel up through the rings. What the Microwave stripper guide does, is immediately 'tame' these coils, allowing the fly line to travel the rest of the way up through the guide train, in an almost straight line, hence reducing point contact with the rings, and therefore friction, to allow increased line speed. What was also immediately apparent to us when testing the first prototypes, was just how much straighter the final presentation was, allowing not only increased distance, but also better line control and accuracy.
All Spectre® RMX Fly Rods come in a black cotton drill rod bag, with a Cordura covered rod tube, in an eye-catching Black & Orange dog-tooth pattern, to be instantly recognisable, as a Snowbee Spectre!

The Spectre RMX rods also feature ‘angler friendly’ touches like alignment dots to quickly line-up your fly rod sections and self-indexing reel seats, with a small diamante ‘marker’ to quickly get your reel on the rod, allowing you to concentrate on the fishing. The Spectre® RMX rods all use the very latest carbon fibre technology providing an unparalleled performance at this price. For many years Snowbee have used ‘multi-modulus’ carbon technology varying the tensile modulus of the carbon fibre, allowing us to precisely design and control the stiffness and flex in each section, as well as the important recovery speed of the tip. Using predominantly 40 ton carbon fibre with a small amount of 36 ton, we have delivered the precise and crisp, middle-to-tip action we required. The blanks are ‘un-ground’ with a natural finish, leaving the original matt lay-up of the double helical hoop pattern intact, adding strength to the blank, making it far more durable, whilst still providing the desired enhanced performance. The matt finish helps eliminate ‘rod flash’, whilst the self-colour whippings and latest superlight matt black aluminium reel seats complete a totally contemporary finish and ‘understated’ look...

With the increasing popularity of saltwater fly fishing around our shores, these are designed exclusively with the more powerful saltwater and predatory fish in mind. The steeper taper on the rod blank, coupled with a thicker blank wall, allows these rods to cope with the best of the powerful fish likely to be encountered! Equally suitable for predatory fish, like pike, or as a single handed salmon or sea-trout rod.
