Steffen Bros. Blanks
CUSTOM RODS ON STEFFEN BLANKS
Classic action, quality S-Glass fly rods. The Steffen Bros. blanks are un-sanded, amber brown and masterfully crafted. Mark Steffen has been rolling fiberglass blanks since 1980. The action of the finished rods are truley special. Because of the interest in Steffen Brothers blanks, Mark typically does not have blanks in stock, and more often than not there is a waiting period to obtain one of these highly sought after blanks. I try to keep 3 or 4 blanks on hand as often as possible. But if there is something you are interested in contact me and I can get an order in.
All rods will be built with the same attention and many of the same finishing techniques used on my bamboo fly rods. All my fiberglass rods will be wrapped in high quality silk, and finished in traditional marine grade spar varnish. The grips will be hand turned in house from the highest flor grade cork I can obtain. The components will be top shelf and the same as I use on my bamboo rods. Reel seats are all my own designs, exclusively made for me by Joel Lemke.

Perfection Grade builds. Rods built to preform and look presentation grade. Any of my exclusive reel seat designs with premium wood inserts and choice of polished or blued nickle hardware, flor grade hand milled cork grip. Wrapped in high quality silk, finished with marine grade spar. Here's where the two grades are different; nickel silver agate stripper guide, and tipping throughout. Alignment dots, a custom sewn rod sack and Leonard style rod tube, with Graywolf label, and warranty are all standard.
Midstream options. If you would prefer an agate stripper guide on a Signature grade rod, or are happy with the stripping guide options on the Signature grade builds but would like tipping throughout the entire rod. This is a good option for customers looking for clear wrapped rods, whom prefer an agate stripper.
