Glass flyrod

Years ago when I first started to flyfish my first rod was a 7 wt Shakespear wonder rod. Then I bought a fenwick. Then moved on to graphite and boron. I bought a 3wt 6"8" glass rod last year. I really like the feel and the rod action of that one and decided to buy another glass rod. Anyone on here have any opinions on these newer s glass rods?

    I built a NFC glass rod Last year. Did some trout fishing with it. Got give some extra pull to hook as it’s lightweight. Can’t complain yet. Opener can’t come soon enough for me to use it again.  Also I don’t care for cork so I put a carbon grip on it which also makes it feel better.

    Must be nice to have the skills necessary to do something like that. My hats off to you!
