Handcrafted Fly Fishing Art in pagosa Springs, Colorado

The Reviews Are In

My daughter and I just completed PJ’s bamboo fly rod building class. PJ’s rods are the embodiment of delicate beauty, grace, precision and strength. PJ is a master craftsman, educator, fisherman and bamboo rod historian. His rods are mostly made of grass (per PJ, bamboo is a member of the grass family), glue, patience, passion and intensity. He uses old school techniques, with a few modern twists. His rods are a working work of art. They are wondrously smooth and cast like a dream. It was all like no other experience I have ever had. Terrific in every regard.

I feel confident with the efficiency of this rod! This rod has continually compelled me to pursue the art of dry fly fishing, and perfecting the technique of coaxing picky brown trout to slurping up my dry fly. I feel inspired to diversify away from my tendency of modern nymphing which is my go-to fishing technique. A bamboo rod of this caliber persuades me away from my competitive fly-fishing roots and moves me to slow down and embrace the history and tradition of the sport.

I began fly fishing in the early 2000’s after buying property in the Pagosa Springs, CO area. Over the ensuing fifteen plus years I’ve acquired and used various rods from Orvis to Sage to TFO and numerous others. In 2018 I received my first bamboo rod custom made by PJ’s.
