The Marcus Warwick range of varnished Split Bamboo fly rods are made to order to the angler's specifications.
Bamboo is the only rod material from which it is possible to custom build a truly individual rod. These rods may be built with an infinite variety of taper, length, action and power. Bamboo is Nature's own 'fantastically versatile fibre' and it provides a uniquely satisfying combination of practical efficiency, with the natural delicacy of colour and exquisite appearance. Owning and using such a rod is part of the richness of our sport.
The main features of Marcus Warwick Cane Rods include: All nickel silver ferrules with a perfect suction fit.
Up or down lock 'de-luxe' reel seats in nickel silver sliding band or screw lock as required.
The finest close-grained natural specie cork hand finished and velvet smooth handles.
All tyings are in a colour of your choice. Four coats of varnish are applied, with a choice of matt, silk or gloss finish.
Some other options for these custom made rods include gold plated rod rings, reel seats and ferrules for that extra special touch.
I offer a range of rods from 6' #3/4 for tiny Dry Flies to the Classic 8' #5/6 3 piece rod.
These proven designs will satisfy the most demanding fly fisherman.
Current prices of 2 piece split bamboo rods with 2 tops, are from £800 and for a 3 piece rod with 2 tops from £900.All Bamboo rods are sold complete with a superior quality cloth bag, hand turned ferrule stoppers and an anodised aluminium rod tube.
