MODEL 805, 805M, and P-102


Length: 8’
3-piece, 2-tips
Line weight: #5
Price: $2750 for Signature Grade, and $3500 for Presentation Grade.

Model 805 is medium fast, smooth action with the taper of  Granger rods. Very pleasant casting and can be used all day without fatigue, and it is a very good all-round rod. If you can only have one 3-piece rod, this would be a good choice.

Available in Signature, and Presentation Grades.

 Length: 8’
2-piece, 2-tips
Line weight: #5

I call Model 805M my Featherweight rod because it is patterned after the well-known Heddon rods carrying the same name. It loads easily and casts smoothly in close and out to 55-60’… It is a medium fast action rather than a dry fly action. With a swelled butt,  it’s a dream to cast, and can be fished all day with little effort…one of my all time favorites -  and very popular with my customers, too!

Available in Classic ($1850),  Signature ($2500), and Presentation ($3500) Grades.

Length: 8’
2-piece, 2-tips
Line weight: #5

Model P-102 is a nice dry fly rod, medium fast, patterned after the famous Payne Model 102 .  This is the best all-around rod in my opinion.   If you are looking for a perfect 5-wt., this rod is it.  

Available in Classic ($1850),& Signature ($2500), and Presentation ($3500) Grades.
