Custom Rod Building
While fly rods are our specialty, we also build custom freshwater rods tailored to your exact needs—any species, any technique, any style. Every rod is built to order using only high-quality components selected for performance, durability, and feel.
Premium Blanks
Batson Rainshadow Blanks
We proudly build with Batson Rainshadow blanks. Founded by Bob Batson, Batson Enterprises has spent over two decades refining rod components using deep industry experience. Rainshadow blanks are trusted by many of the top custom rod builders in the business.
Revelation Series
The Rainshadow Revelation fast-action blanks offer an excellent balance of power, sensitivity, and lightweight performance across a wide range of applications. These blanks are versatile, responsive, and proven on the water.
If you prefer a different blank, we have access to nearly any brand and can build to your exact specifications.
Custom Components & Upgrades
Your rod can be fully customized with upgraded components, including:
- Custom grips
- Reel seats
- Decorative thread wraps and thread art
We work with you to create a rod that not only performs exceptionally but also reflects your personal style.
Guides & Thread
Guides
We use ALPS and Forecast guides, both considered industry standards among custom rod builders. ALPS components are known for innovation, strength, and long-term durability.
Thread
We use Madera and Fuji threads—two of the best brands available. Their advanced dyeing processes ensure vibrant colors that hold up for years, even with prolonged UV exposure.
