SWMR Glidepath - 7'4", 1/2 - 2 oz, Medium (Swimbait)

The ALX Rods SWMR Glidepath is purpose-built for anglers who chase glide bait perfection. With a Medium (Swimbait) power rating, lure range of .5-2 oz, and Fast action, it delivers the tip sensitivity to let glides track cleanly, yet enough backbone to drive hooks through big water. Designed for compact and midsize glide baits, soft bodies, treble-hook swim styles, paddle tails, and crossover surface work, the Glidepath is dialed for balanced performance.

Glides demand rhythm, feel, and feedback. The Glidepath shines when you’re working a 6- to 8-inch glide bait, letting you “slip” the bait between laydowns, nail turning glides at the edge, and execute long casts that fade into the target zone without spooking fish. The 14-inch handle gives leverage for sweeping hooksets and comfortable long-arm casting; you’ll sense the blank load smoothly as you arc into long casts, then yield just enough under pressure to preserve trebles yet flatten out for powerful finish when it counts. It’s the rod you’ll leave rigged for calm water glides, dirty water draws, or early morning glassy topwater crossers — wherever glide behavior matters.

Engineered with premium USA-assembled blanks and components, the Glidepath includes: full-sized guide train (10 + tip) leader-knot friendly, ModFast action to preserve glide motion and treble hook hookup, and a 14" ergonomic handle optimized for glide casting leverage. Every component—from guide selection to taper—has been selected with the discipline of glide fishing in mind.

Built by anglers, for anglers. Designed and assembled in the USA, with rigorous testing using real glides in lakes, reservoirs, and cover. Backed by ALX Rods warranty. If your goal is tight glide paths, locked trebles, and consistent hooksets on glides and crossover baits, the Glidepath won’t let you down.
