Matching 8, 9, & 10wt Belize Bound

When you’re taking a very special trip, you deserve to fish with very special rods.

These fast-action, salt-water slayin’, travel-friendly rods are the bees knees, and I can’t wait to see what the sport catches with them!

There are many rocks, but this one is Leroy’s

Every time I get to bring the boy out to the woods with me, I feel like the luckiest person in the world.

Love this sweet boy, love fishing, and love getting to enjoy both simultaneously.

Just in case anyone required further clarification,

the best time to hit the fish whistle is whenever you want,

Cause 60% of the time, it works every time.

Thank goodness spring is coming / here

The weather is getting nicer, temps are rising, and thankfully there is still some regular rain on the forecast. So let’s get out and play with some beautiful wild trout while conditions allow!

Have plenty of week-day as well as weekend availability for April / May (the best time to be out imho), just shoot me a DM, email, call, carrier pidgeon, or smoke signal, and we’ll make it happen!

A very special rod for a very special guy

Getting to build this themed 8’ 4wt for my brother and our first real fishing trip together, is something I’ve wanted to do for a long time. Getting to see him not only get his first trout, but the first trout of the trip with it was truly the icing on the cake.

Whether building for family, friends, or a little something just for you this holiday season, I love getting to build these memory-makers for folks! Let’s get a custom rod in your hands!

11/03/2025

Drought, bed-bugs, moving, trip to california, surgery recovery, tree falling in the backyard, the last few months have been a non-stop roller-coaster to put it politely.

With all of these things happening, to say I have been overwhelmed would be a polite understatement. There’s been no water / very limited time to do anything “fun,” so neither fishing nor working on rods have been an option. Without doing these things, my motivation to post / feeling like I have anything of value to say has been brought to absolute zero. No one needs to hear me p**s and moan about how scary it is being a small-business owner amidst the global insanity occurring, plenty of others doing that.

The shop in the new abode is finally up and running, I’m cranking away on repairs, looking forward to building some xmas rods for folks before we get too close to the holidays. Of course, I hope you all are doing as well as can be, that you’re finding some time to be able to get out and find good conditions for fishing, and that I have the pleasure of building / fixing your rods / taking you on a guided trip real soon!
