The Vision brand rates the carbon used in each of their graphite rods to provide optimal performance. The rating number corresponds to the modulus of the carbon used in the rod and is closely related to the type of carbon used. However, it's important to note that Vision uses different carbon mixtures and resins to achieve the desired rod action, so the rating serves only as an indication of the main carbon used in the blank. For the ultimate in performance, Vision's premium rods use graphene in the resin and can be easily identified by the Graphene logo.
Since 1997, Vision has been a leading Finnish manufacturer that provides a wide range of fly fishing gear, including rods, reels, wading clothes, and accessories. All their products are known for their modern design and exceptional value for money. Although Vision has a reputation for producing reliable mid-range products, they have recently gained recognition for their high-end rods.
