No. 481 · Hand wrapped in West Sussex
Rods built one
thread at a time.
Custom Rodworx is a boutique rod workshop building bespoke lure spinning, casting, big game and fly rods. We specialize in saltwater casting, jigging, fly and big game rods: JDM high end rebuilds and repairs undertaken. Every blank is hand-selected, every wrap tied under tension, every component checked and quality assured.
