Plans are also in the works to start another EPIC 888 in the coming weeks.
If anyone is interested in one, let me know and I will start it sooner.
In the last several months, due to all the great customers, I have been selling a lot of rods as you can see. As of now, Aug 8, I am gaining ground and have a couple photographed and will be on the site soon. One is a McFarland GTX 8½' 5wt 4pc and the other one is an EPIC Olive 686 8½' 6wt. Three more STEFFEN's are being built - 8034 - 8045 - 8056 that are scheduled for completion a few weeks down the road so . . .Stay Tuned!!
Customers are my greatest asset. Thanks for being one!
Custom Steffen Brothers 8'6" 5/6wt - #24539
This rod was a custom build for a gentleman in Templeton, CA
The rod is a Steffen Brothers 8656 glass in the standard chestnut color. The reel seat is a Lemke original Dk. Nickel plated aluminum seat enhanced with a piece of stabilized Spalted Alder and a 1" fighting butt.
The 7" grip is cork in the Full Wells style. Guides are Dk. Nickel Snake Brand snake guides with a blued nickel silver agate stripping guide by Joe Arguello in the "Banded Coffee" color. This 5/6 wt rod also has a ceramic tip top. Thread wraps are in nylon with epoxy coating. The customer also requested an 18" marker on the rod to quickly gauge the fish length.
