Parker hand crafted Fly Rod

Silver $$ Contributor
A beautiful Fly Rod built on an American made graphite rod blank. It has a sweet moderate action that excels at precise, delicate presentation of dry flies. Nickel Silver fittings and a beautiful Mexican Kingwood (Dalbergia Congestiflira) reel seat. Flor grade cigar grip and an agate stripping guide. Recoil, Titanium snake guides used throughout. Silk wraps on the guides. 7.5’ 3-4 wt.

A Sage or Orvis rod with no where near the aesthetics of this rod is $900-$1000. Life is too short to fish with ugly rods!

Rod #001

$650 shipped.

I live down stream from the Kern River drainage. We have three species of native trout in our back yard: the Little Kern Golden Trout, the Volcano Creek Golden Trout and the Kern River Rainbow. I’ve caught two of the three so far. Beautiful fish in each case. They need a subtle approach and a delicate presentation.
 
I’m 55. I might turn out 10 rods per year. My rods are heirloom quality and are well thought out for both performance and aesthetics. I assure you that you will never fish with a more beautiful rod than mine. Tight lines!

I helicopter logged down in that country. We lived in Kernville and worked way upstream near Johnsondale (sp)...the townsite was for sale at the time. There was a tiny creek up there full of hungry golden trout. Beautiful fish and good eating; we found out later that they were protected.
Great times!
