    Sandy Supporting the Wild Trout Trust

    January 12, 2015 1 min read

    Announcements Custom Fly Rod Builders Epic Custom Builds Fiberglass Fly Rod Fly Rod Building

    We get to work with a bunch of really great rod builders from all over the world and Sandy Nelson in Aberdeen, Scotland is certainly one of them.

    Sandy has put together this sharp Epic build to help raise funds for the Wild Trout Trust in the UK, thanks for thinking of us and going for an Epic blank Sandy. The package is being topped off with a line from Mike Barrio at Barrio Fly Lines - cheers Mike!

    I have built an Epic 480 in Nude for the upcoming Wild Trout Trust 
    auction here in the UK. The auction runs with an online catalogue and 
    on Ebay in early March (3-12).

    The rod has a jade insert, a custom flor handle and is 
    whipped in silk with fine wire rings, its being auctioned with a Swift 
    Bag and Tube.

    We'll keep you posted on our Facebook page with a link to the Auction when it goes live.

    Gear Reviews Tips
    The slim beauty is one of the most popular fly fishing knots in use today. It is a great knot for connecting class tippets to shock tippets as well as tippet sections to butt sections. This knot is strong, easy to tie on the water, and has a very low profile.
