I offer a fine selection of 100% Handcrafted Split Cane Fly Rods. The Fly Rods come in different shapes: Regular Hex, Flattened Hex and Quadrate. The tapers that I have developed are highly responsive (High Natural Frequency – Middle Fast and Fast Action) and able to satisfy also the more sophisticated casters. They have been described as an answer for those fly fishers who want high performance rods, without losing the real bamboo soul. The building process is performed using only manual tools. Nothing is processed with milling machines which can stress the natural material and cause damage. Each bamboo culm is unique and requires specific choices which a machine is not able to perform. Most of the rods I build are orders on commission. In order to guarantee the best quality of the whole work process, every year, only a small number of fly rods will be produced.
Only selected canes of Arundinaria Amabilis Bamboo are used during the building process. I use only Top Quality components selected along the years of Rodbuilding experience
100% Handmade Work Process. The rod that come out from the Lab. are handplaned from the rough planing to the completed blank
Customizable – Each Fly Rod is a unique piece. It’s like an handmade suit custom taylored on the base of the customer’s specifications.
