Rods in the Series. The Deluxe Series rods have two tips and are available in six models:


The Grande Ronde. 6′ 6" 3/4 weight. Medium action. 2.3 oz. Built using the Dickerson 6611 taper.

As a medium action rod, the Grande Ronde is exceptional for working in small, brushy streams. Without the luxury of a backcast, this rod is ideal for making large rollcast loops.

The smooth progression allows for more “feel” when fighting even the smallest fish. This light and delicate rod is maneuverable for presentations to 40 feet. The Grande Ronde fishes well with action inherent in fine classic bamboo rods.

Put fun into your small stream experience with the Grande Ronde.


The Santiam. 7′ 0" 4/5 weight. Medium action. 2.7 oz. Built using the Garrison 201e taper.

The Santiam rod fishes with a confident relaxed action inherent in fine bamboo rods. Its progressive medium action loads as demand is place on it. This action works well both for in-close situations and moderate distance.

It is easy loading, precise casting, and enjoyable to fish. The Santiam’s crisp and responsive action makes it a versatile fly fishing tool.

The Breitenbush. 7′ 0" 5/6 weight. Medium fast action. 2.9 oz.  Based on the Edwards 7052 taper.

Fly anglers who prefer a faster-action bamboo rod will be thrilled with the Breitenbush. This powerful, medium-fast rod is delightful to cast. Built for smaller streams and spring creeks, this rod is ideal for close-in action yet has excellent reach and achieves pinpoint accuracy.

This rod is fun to cast and makes a handsome addition to a rod collection.

Our medium-fast taper rods (this and the Rogue in 7′ 6" length, see below) are based off classic tapers by Eustus Edwards, a master bamboo rod builder of the early 20th century.

These tapers are exciting to fish and a pleasure to behold.


 

The Metolius. 7′ 6" 5/6 weight. Medium action. 3.2 oz. Built using the Payne 101 taper.

The Metolius rod provides a balance between power and accuracy. This classic medium-fast taper is well-designed and does not easily overload. The Metolius rod is superb for larger waters.

Well suited for wet or dry fly action, the Metolius rod embodies the experience of fly fishing at its best.

Put your fly fishing skills to the test with the Metolius.  


The Rogue. 7′ 6" 5/6 weight. Medium fast action. 3.6 oz.  Based on the Edwards 7052 taper.

The same medium-fast taper of the Breitenbush is engineered to 7’6” for the action and excitement in a larger rod for powerful long casts and accuracy. Whether working a large body of water or in tight quarters, the quick response of this rod will bring pleasure to the angler.

The medium-fast action of this rod provides a feel that you can only get with a fine bamboo rod. This rod is excellent for fighting larger fish.

The Deschutes. 8′ 0" 5/6 weight. Medium action. 4.7 oz. Built on the Dickerson 8014 taper.

Anglers who want distance and accuracy will want to have a Deschutes in their rod cache. The Deschutes rod is an artful combination of strength and agility—perfectly balanced and detailed.
