Early June Update - Spring is officially here! The days are long and everything is in full bloom. The spring steelhead trip is behind me and the Kenai is opening in just a few days. I finally got around to doing some long needed website maintenance. I have added a whole bunch more classic tapers as well as a new line of custom tapers (the LL series). Click here to see the new taper lists. As always I'm happy to make just about any classic taper that is available, even if it isn't listed. Just get in touch and let me know what you're looking for. The Build Status page is back in place and I'll be keeping it up to date on a more-or-less weekly basis so keep an eye on things if you are on the list and are expecting your rod soon. I have also combined a few pages into one page in order to keep the side menu bar as uncluttered as possible. You'll now find Downloads, Links and the Color Selector pages are all to be found by using the Misc option on the side menu bar. If you happen to be in the Oregon area the weekend of July 17th, come on by Camp Sherman for the Ninth Annual Metolius River Fly Fishing & Bamboo Rod Fair. I will be there along with a bunch of other rodmakers, fishing tackle dealers and fly tyers. For details, visit the Camp Sherman Store website by clicking here. I'm also still selling Solitude and Shilton fly reels. Please get in touch if you need a new reel for the current season. As always, thank you for everyone's support!
