JP ROSS FLY RODS - Kabuto Rods X Colorado LT Outfit

Some things just go perfectly together and one of the latest shop builds from JP Ross Fly Rods on a 7'6" four weight Kabuto Rods blank matched with a Ross Reels Colorado LT clicker looks like they were made for each other.

I've had a Kabuto Rods four weight for years and it still remains one of my favorite fiberglass fly rods.  A great taper with power and exactness when presenting a fly. 

This fly rod outfit is for sale and now until sold, take $50.00 off the already reduced price using code "TFM50".

Visit the JP Ross Fly Rods website for more information or to snap this fly rod up before someone else does.

LEIDERMAN RODS - Epic Warmwater Style

Matt Leiderman of Leiderman Rods recently finished a set of share worthy Swift Fly Fishing builds for a client in Florida with warmwater on the mind.  Both the Epic 476 and Epic 580 builds are matched completely even down to the small fighting butts.  As usual with Matt's work, I like these builds a lot.

Follow along on the Leiderman Rods Facebook and Instagram for the latest builds and shop news.

WINGED REEL - One Man's Trash

The boys from Winged Reel giving the bowfin some love with this well done shortie film.



“One Man’s Trash” is another man’s treasure. This journey takes us into remote areas of the Okefenokee National Wildlife Refuge, seldom ventured into with fly rods, after a toothy species widely disregarded as trash. I’ve been talking about making this film since 2012 when I started Winged Reel. 2016 was the year and the planning was pretty cumbersome. The Okefenokee is a special place for me. One of the last truly wild and remote areas in my home state of Georgia. Like my life’s reset button, it’s an escape from my every day grind. I look forward to discussing more what went into making this film; including some awesome [and not so awesome] experiences with our filming team of 4 friends in the heat, trashy old boat builds, grown men sleeping in train cars and some serious streamer crushing action."
