Welcome to PoppyCane:

I now only do 5 rod sizes, a 7'-4wt, a 7'6"-5wt, and an 8'-5wt. These 3 are dry fly actions. Also I do an 8'-6wt and an 8'-7wt. These 2 models have found favor with anglers casting larger bugs from watercraft.

All are 6 sided, two piece with two mirrored tips, flamed cane with a in house down lock slide band reel seat using 6061 bar stock aluminum. Super Z style nickel silver ferrules. Snake Brand chrome snake guides and tip tops with a Perfection hard chrome stripping guide.

I use dark walnut, light walnut, and light cherry, for the reel seat fillers. All rods have orange/black Jasper size "A" nylon thread which turns a deeper shade after being coated with varnish. The grips are high grade cork with the 7' and 7'6" rod grips a cigar shape. The 8' rod has a Half Wells grip, or a Full Wells grip, buyer's choice. The blank has a tung oil based finish with the wraps coated with M.O.W. varnish. They come with a Poppy flannel rod bag and a mill finish aluminum tube. Note: My slide band reel seats work best with Hardy L.R.H. series reels, Hardy Marquis and the similar SA reels. Also Pflueger Medalist reels with One P-foot conversions.

My thoughts on cane cosmetics are, structural defects are removed but cosmetic blems are not. I just can't see throwing away a perfectly good piece of cane because it has surface blems that have zero bearing on the rod's worth as a casting and fish fighting tool.

Presently a two tip rod is $1,200.00. I do not ask for a deposit, with payment in full @ time of delivery. Payment can be cash, check, MO, or plastic. I do not accept PayPal

I do not give delivery dates. I get them done as fast as I can while dealing with owning a fly shop, family life, and trying to get some fishing time in here and there. As with my fly shop I have 100% buyer satisfaction. Thanks, Poppy
