RETRO SPEC - Our first new spec for 2012!


Yesterdays look and feel, today's technology...
Nostalgia is the theme & gorgeous smooth casting is the feel you get.
This rod blends the tradition of cane actions into the most high performance materials and features a very gentle loading action..
We want to take you back to yesteryear - a slow, graceful action and a taper so progressive that you never miss a split-second of the sensation of the cast - time stands still briefly as the fly gently lands in the pocket... then, once taken, the fish becomes part of the rod: part of you.
You will feel every bit of the tussle down to the grip. It's earthy. It's beautiful.
It's Retro - From the Snake brand chrome guides, Mildrum red agate stripper guide to the hand lettering to the classic cigar shaped flor grade cork grip, the retro folding hook keeper and the simple yet beautiful Walnut wood insert (that matches the blank!) nickel silver reel seat- all the old style fittings that will make this spec, a classic in itself.
Our feature build in this spec is a 3wt 7' 4pc - based on the CTS Vintage blank in walnut.

You can have from 0wt to 5wt in any length you like but our base offerings are as follows: 

0wt 6' - 1wt 6' - 2wt 6'6" - 3wt 7' - 4wt 7'6" - 5wt 8'
