Favorite Series Rods - $355

Discover the Allure of Bamboo

We designed the Favorite Series to provide an accessible bamboo rod for fly anglers. If you’ve ever wanted to fish bamboo, but were stymied by the high cost of bamboo or concerned about the quality of a used rod, this is your opportunity to be gently introduced to bamboo.

These genuine Tonkin bamboo blanks are fitted with a nickel-plated cap and sliding ring reel seat, redwood burl insert, and reverse half wells cork grip. The guides are wrapped in burnt red windings tipped in black. Comes complete with a single tip section for maximum value.
