Studio Built™ Custom - Our premium fly rod offering. The pinnacle of craftsmanship and performance.
Each Epic two-handed Spey rod is a custom-tuned, advanced, lightweight, and highly responsive two-handed fly rod.
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.
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 Spey
6 / 7 Large Trout & Steelhead
7 / 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.
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.
Delivered direct to your door
Once ordered it usually takes around four 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.
We believe there is no better fly rod made.
