Chris Clemes Fly Rods Display

A true craftsman

Chris -Thought you might enjoy this picture - putting my 7' Symphony No3 cane fly rod to very good use on the River Wye. The rod action combined with the silk line is a revelation and a joy to fish with!

Chris wow what a great rod, always wanted to own a piece of artwork and now I do. My 8ft #5 was used last weekend on the Anton and again two days later on the Itchen, super action and a real different feel to the carbon rods I fish with and great when you have a fish on. So pleased that I have ordered a 7.6ft 4# which I will be able to use next season.Great customer service and a pleasure dealing with someone who is so passionate about his art.

A fully personalised service and professional top quality product! I am delighted with my customised built cane rod. A lifetime fly angler my family commissioned the personalised rod as a 70th birthday gift. I have in all my angling life never held a rod as fine and responsive as this one. It is brilliant - it casts a tight loop and gives me accuracy and response that I have been deprived of for a long time. Well pleased and eternally grateful to Chris. A BIG thank you!

As I have fished Chris' fly rods from the northern Russian rivers on the Kola Peninsula down to the shores of Costa Rica, I can attest these rods provide a whole lot of fun and are a conversation starter for enthusiasts!Mark B. Stiles
