Hand made excellence
Today's modern advanced carbon fibre laminates are
derived
from the aerospace, motor sports and hi-tech engineering
industries.
All projects using carbon fibre technology require
different blends of material to achieve the desired result ie,
nose cones from a fighter aircraft require totally different
carbon fibres than the body panels from an F1 racing car. So, to
be successful when building top quality fishing rods, an
understanding of the qualities of the many different carbon
fibres available is needed, so as to be able to hand build a
fishing rod for you that will cast effortlessly and also play
fish well.
Your rod blank will be produced by a British company, with an
excellent design team, who specialise in premier quality carbon
fibre fishing rod products.
Working closely together with them a range of fly fishing rods,
carp and barbel fishing rods, at the cutting-edge of technology,
has been produced. As new, more exotic, carbon fibres become
available they are harnessed into your fishing rod design.
Computer Aided Designs (CAD) helps to build, for you, fishing
rods that are light, strong and durable with actions that are a
delight to use. High quality that could save the need for future
fishing rod repairs.
