RED HEART BROOKIE

40 copy.jpg
  • This three weight rod is based on the Devine Fairy taper giving a crisp high-fast action well suited for roll casts and close in dry fly work and throws a tight loop when paired with a 406 DT-4-F Fly Line. 

  • Reel seat butts and slide bands are enameled with fused powdered glass. Enameling insures ultimate protection from harsh elements like moisture and UV light. The subtle enamel beige through gold colors in this rod reflect a Brookie or Brownie's beautiful coloration. Each reel seat butt and slide band I make is then a unique interpretation of a fishy pattern; no two are alike. 

  • This reel handle and winding check are hand-turned from Red Heart. The bright, darker coloration encourages a positive attitude in your quest for trout.

  • The rod grip is turned from stacked cork rings. This grip could easily be fitted with a layer of rattan to give a litle more weight to the rod.

I am now offering four and five weight rods for a moderate price. I would suggest we do a meet and greet for you to cast a rod and discuss options. 

I have a ton of material resources having got this far down the rabbit hole.
