Tough, Light, Responsive. The 590G

A little faster and a little stiffer than it's 590C cousin. The Epic 590G is an extremely light responsive 5 weight fly rod blank designed specifically for dry fly, emerger and light nymph fishing for small to medium sized trout. 

Graphene Tough
Our use of Graphene nano-resin makes for an extremely tough, lightweight and extremely responsive blank. 5% stronger than standard epoxy resin construction.

Stealthy Satin SnakeBelly™ Finish
Our Satin SnakeBelly™ finish is produced by a unique radial production process. SnakeBelly™ delivers the toughest exterior finish possible with a super low sheen satin finish.

Sure Fit Ferule™
Break a tip? we've got you covered. This ferule system is so precise that parts interchange between models. Gone are the days of having to return a broken section to the manufacturer or outlet where you purchased from. Breakages can be addressed by simply sending out the replacement part.

    Light
    The 590G fly rod blank weighs an astoundingly light 36 grams

    Action
    Epic G Series fly rod blanks are high performance fishing tools. The lockup point develops in the top third of the blank, and although recovery rates are fast, the Epic G series would best be described as Mid Flex and Medium fast. They are light without sacrificing strength.

    Includes:

    • Epic 590G Rod Decals
    • Satin Rod Tube
    • Rod Sock

    A Real Performer

    Nice feeling rod took it to NZ in January and it performed really well. When I needed soft presentations it was perfect but still handled everything else. It was great to be able to pack it down and put it in my back pack for those long walk ins.

    Mind Blown

    I am mind blown. Not only is the rod amazing, but after I had an issue with a damaged section of my brand new rod, I contacted Epic and was treated like a real person who was jist trying to get back on the water. Within jist a few days they responded, resolved and mailed my my replacement parts. That kind of respect and customer service is second to none and I will gladly purchase from them again.
