I build three distinct models of rods:

Bespoke- the very definition of custom

Presentation- singularly unique

Classic Series-my most popular

 

Bespoke rods are a unique limited edition rod, completely tailored to each individual. Each rod takes from one to two years to complete, and is in effect a collaboration with you to craft the ultimate fishing rod. Please call for more information.

Presentation rods feature specialized multi tip/ butt taper combinations that are specific for several Vermont rivers. Engraved initials on butt cap, my signature sunburst finish, and engraved custom rod tubes are standard on Presentation models. Please call for more information

 

 

 

 

Classic Series rods are available in a wide array of tapers, length, and line weight, reminiscent of the offerings of the best rods from the Golden Age of bamboo rodmaking. Please see the Classic Series page for more information.

All of my rods are designed to be complete, practical fishing tools. With wonderful casting dynamics, innate aesthetic value, and in hand presence and joy only bamboo can provide. The end result is a rod with a quiet, dignified, harmonious nature.
