Customers are my greatest asset. Thanks for being one!
Many thanks to all my great customers. I have gotten behind this summer no only from great sales but also a death in the family in mid-September. My wife's mother passed away and we both have been working together to address all of the necessities several months before and after she passed. We will eventually get it all wrapped up as a rod builder would say!!
I have 5 rods waiting to be wrapped and she has her tax business that is always in need. More rod designs s are on the way and I am planning some good stuff for 2027 as well.
Many thanks for all your patience and Lord willing we both will be in full swing soon.
Please feel free to contact me at this time as I can always work in whatever is needed.

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.
