Bamboo Fly Rods
A few rods ready to be wrapped
Each bamboo fly rod I make is hand split and planed from the finest grade A+ Tonkin Cane available. It is blemish free and contains very dense power fibers. Rods are available in blonde, brown toned, flamed or any shade in between. There are many custom options available (see Custom Options and Other Offerings pages for details). All standard rods feature beautiful cap and ring or slide band seats in nickel silver with presentation grade wood inserts, bezeled agate stripper guides, snake guides and tops, braided rope strap and ring hook keepers, hex winding checks, nickel silver ferrules and reserve grade cork grips.
I don't have a "line" of pre-formulated fly rods as many makers do, as I believe that a fly rod should be as individual as it's owner. Each rod is handcrafted for you, one at a time. We have an extensive taper archive, so let us know your fishing situation and we'll find a taper that fits you perfectly. We also have the ability to incorporate distinctively swelled butts into existing tapers, as well.
All bamboo fly rods feature one of the finest finishes available on any cane rod today...just look at our testimonials. Each rod comes with a handmade, fitted cloth rod bag with integrated stiffener, hand turned antler ferrule plug/s, and black powder coated aluminum rod tube with solid brass end caps and the Pryor Custom Fly Rods logo screen printed on the tube.
