100% Carbon Construction.The carbon helix core boasts true 100% carbon construction. These blanks contain no scrim.
100% Uni-directional material - Non-Woven.Super light-weight construction and superior strength. Non woven Uni-directional material is up to 40% stronger than traditional woven material commonly used by fly rod manufacturers. A non-woven fiber can achieve 100% of its tensile and compressive loading. Unidirectional material affords super lightweight construction and superior strength.
100% Carbon Helix CoreA 100% helical core forms the basis for hoop strength and fibre support in the zero/longitudinal axis and does away with traditional scrim-based construction.
Silica-nano technology. Super Low Resin Systems.Utilising materials with resin content up to 30% less than conventional materials, Epic C series blanks are lighter and stronger. Low resin materials help increase bending limits & overall response.
Multi Carbon Construction (Multi modulus).Using only the highest quality fabrics from the USA, Japan and Korea, up to five different types of carbon are used in each blank. Each type is placed at various parts of the blank to optimize strength and weight. Ultra-high modulus fibre boasts the highest tensile and compressive strength of any fibre in its class.
Internal High Strength Ferrule.A high-strength internal ferrule is placed at each join to provide superior crush and split resistance.
Target Zero Fibre Alignment.Fibre alignment along the length of any blank is critical. Even the smallest deviation in fibre alignment from the axis of load will greatly reduce the strength of the blank.

FastGlass II™All Epic "Glass" rods are produced from industry-leading 8 micron Unidirectional S-2 Glass. This next-generation fiber is specifically engineered for fly rod production and features 8 micron fibers developed and produced in the USA. These fibres are almost half the diameter of other unidirectional materials, resulting in tighter, more precise and stronger fly rods.
SnakeBelly™SnakeBelly™ delivers the toughest exterior finish possible. After production, blanks are first painted and then clear coated. This two-step process produces blanks that are incredibly scratch resistant and durable.
SureFit Ferule™Break a tip? we've got you covered This ferule system is so precise that breakages can be addressed by simply sending out the replacement part. Gone are the days of having to return a broken section.
Built Epic ToughEpic glass rods are incredibly tough. Our S2 FastGlass II has a far higher strength-to-weight ratio than Carbon fibre (graphite) rods. Epic FastGlass rods can endure more acute and severe bends than the equivalent Carbon fibre or even regular S2 glass, tip sections are stronger and far less susceptible to breakages due to high-sticking and problematic rod angles when pulling against load.
Delivered direct to your doorOnce ordered it usually takes around two weeks to build your new fly rod, then we deliver priority tracked and insured courier direct to your door. We'll email you with tracking info as your rod leaves our studio workshop.

Reference 12wt The Boca Grande Fly Rod
$671.99
$895.95
The Mighty Boca Grande 12wt FastGlass Fly Rod
Studio Built™ Custom - Our premium fly rod offering. The pinnacle of craftsmanship and performance.
A Heavyweight without the heavy weight.Classy, glassy and an absolute powerhouse. The mighty Boca Grande is an incredibly tough and resilient 12 weight fly rod. Premium quality all the way with 3 Titanium stripping guides. Finished in 'seafoam aqua' this fly rod is absolutely stunning from top to toe and a real joy to cast. Exquisitely handcrafted to order and delivered directly to your door.
Let's be frank here. 12 weight graphite rods tend to be as stiff as broomsticks, far from enjoyable to cast and get one under serious load and they're prone to exploding. (Carbon fibre experiences what is technically termed "Catastrophic failure" - Glass Fibre does not)
We wanted to build an extremely tough 12 weight fly rod that was enjoyable & fun to cast and could easily pull about 24lbs / 11 kg.
The Blank.The Boca blank is a marvel of composites engineering. Our prime design consideration was to keep weight down while delivering fast recovery speed. Fully unidirectional S2 FastGlass delivers super strength and resilience without the weight.
The Shiny Bits. The components on the rod had to be the best we could source so we went for 3 premium Titanium stripping guides fitted with Japanese SiC inserts. We fit the rest of the blank out in Snake Brand dark nickel snakes - these are the most salt-resistant guides we could find (Salt fog tests by Snake Brand prove it)
Ferrule System. Each ferrule is internally reinforced with a small additional flag of glass fibre material, each ferrule is then over wrapped with a magnum length Japanese silk wrap and then finished with three coats of premium epoxy finish.
Reel Seat. Our famous Epic alloy reel seat is a one-piece CNC machined work of art. This reel seat will outlast you, your boat and your guide. Your kids will be fishing with this fly rod.
Grip.The Boca is fitted with our wickedly comfortable modified Full Wells grip - this thing is so comfortable you'll want to sleep in it. And like everything we do, it has substance to it - this grip is not one of those arty fart hipster slim grips that look good but kill your hand. This is something to really get your mitts around!
The Finish.Each Boca is painted in luscious Aqua using a two-pot marine grade paint system. And the final step? - we polish each rod AND rod tube with Mothers California Gold® Brazilian Carnauba Wax. No kidding.
This is the most beautiful, most functional fly rod you will ever own.
Each handcrafted Boca Grande Fly rod features:
Unique fully unidirectional S2 Glass Fibre blank (FastGlass)
Internally reinforced ferrule system
3 x Titanium stripper guides with Japanese SiC inserts - Rustproof
Rustproof Snake Brand dark nickel Universal guides, USA
Our world-famous fiberglass rod tube

Titanium stripping guides, the best cork in the industry, Japanese silk wraps, CNC machined reel seat with self-locating hood, alignment dots and a handwritten inscription - this is a two-handed fly rod like no other.
3 Weights. One length. 6 Pieces.
After talking to expert Spey casters around the world a 13ft two-hander was clearly the most versatile and useful length for most two-handed casters. A standardized length across our range also makes line selection a comparatively easy task.
Weights:Epic two-handed blanks come in 3 different weights/power configurations:5 / 6 Trout Spey6 / 7 Large Trout & Steelhead7 / 8 Salmon & large Steelhead
Recommended Grain Windows:5 / 6 Trout Spey: 340 - 420 grains. 6 / 7 Large Trout & Steelhead: 420 - 480 grains. 7 / 8 Salmon & large Steelhead: 470 - 530 grains.
Convenience.
Feedback from travelling anglers told us that conventional 4 piece rods were too long to travel with, we took that on board and produce all our two-handers in a convenient 6 piece configuration. These big rods will easily fit in your luggage alongside a single-handed fly rod.
Our unique ground ferrule system means actions are precise and indistinguishable from a standard 4 piece rod.

"I really believe the EPIC 686 is by far the most popular GLASS streamer rod on the market. More often than not, I get requests for the 686 and most of the time in Salsa. Carl has created a wonderful, and powerful taper and folks love them!"
- Shane Gray Graywolf Rods.

The beauty is in the fact that the rod can lay out ten feet of line with the delicacy of a full flex cane, but when called upon fire 95' of line into a stiff breeze. It does all of this with a great deal of feel and composure that most rods will never achieve. It is quite possibly one of the best 6wts on the mark glass, graph, or grass."- Zeb Tonkavich Snowman Custom Rod Works"the Epic 686 is (f#$%'ing) magic in my hands.

100% Uni-directional material - Non Woven.Super light-weight construction and superior strength. Non woven Uni-directional material is up to 40% stronger than traditional woven material commonly used by fly rod manufacturers. A non woven fiber can achieve 100% of its tensile and compressive loading. Unidirectional material affords super lightweight construction and superior strength.

Silica-nano technology. Super Low Resin Systems.Utilising materials with resin content up to 30% less than conventional materials, Epic C series blanks are lighter and stronger. Low resin materials help increase bending limits & overall response.
Multi Carbon Construction (Multi modulus).Using only the highest quality fabrics from the USA, Japan and Korea, up to five different types of carbon are used in each blank. Each type is placed at various parts of the blank to optimize strength and weight. Ultra-high modulus fibre boasts the highest tensile and compressive strength of any fibre in its class.
Internal High Strength Ferrule.A high strength internal ferrule is placed at each join to provide superior crush and split resistance.
Target Zero Fibre Alignment.Fibre alignment along the length of any blank is critical. Even the smallest deviation in fibre alignment from the axis of load will greatly reduce the strength of the blank.

Multi Carbon Construction (Multi modulus).Using only the highest quality fabrics from the USA, Japan and Korea, up to five different types of carbon are used in each blank. Each type is placed at various parts of the blank to optimize strength and weight. Ultra-high modulus fibre boasts the highest tensile and compressive strength of any fibre in its class.
Internal High Strength Ferrule.A high-strength internal ferrule is placed at each join to provide superior crush and split resistance.
Target Zero Fibre Alignment.Fibre alignment along the length of any blank is critical. Even the smallest deviation in fibre alignment from the axis of load will greatly reduce the strength of the blank.
