FTU's Green Rods are the OG rods of the Texas Coastal Fishing Scene. They helped revolutionize the sport of fishing for trout, redfish, flounder and similar species with lures. Built on feather-light, high quality graphite blanks, these models have Recoil guides and split grips, to reduce overall weight. The grips are made of rubberized cork, which is durable and won't pit like plain cork.
