J. W. Gallas Rod Company

All my Fly Rods are made to custom order. Choosing any rod model ia a personal consideration of casting style, taste and fishing situations. As a maker of cane rods since 1980, priority has continually been focused toward developing and refining unique rod tapers.  These tapers are original and are based on hysteretic and parabolic design. The principle of hystersis combines features from proven progressive and semi-parabolic design theories.
 The entire rod length above the hand grasp is used to propel the cast.  This concept provides a crisp dry fly action without being tip heavy.  The results are delicate feel and presentation, accurate line control, and reserve power.
Traditional methods, styling, and materials are employed in the creation of each rod.
