Beulah Platinum has become one of the hottest lines of Spey Rods at The Fly
Fishing Shop in Welches, Oregon for very good reasons. Platinum rods are
extremely high-tech featuring three different types of graphite and boron
stringers in the blank construction. Additionally these rods have the best
fitting ferrules found on any two-handers. This helps transmit power
smoothly and they stay together while casting without messy tape. The most
surprising feature on the Beulah Platinum Spey Rods are their handles. Each
individual cork is glued to the blank then the handle is lathe-turned on the
blank for maximum durability and the best transmission of feel during the
casting process. The cosmetics of these rods with rubberized cork accents in
the handles and four color wraps, and impeccable epoxy work are features
that are found only on expensive custom rods such as Meisers, Burkheimers,
and Andersons. Beulah Platinum rods cost 2/3's the price, are light-weight
in the hand, are usually available for immediate delivery, and often out
preform their custom counter-parts. For A Limited Time Only: Receive a FREE Rio or Airflo Spey Shooting Head (Skagit or Scandi) up to $60 Value. Offer ends December 31, 2013 |

Spey Rods
Classic Series
Platinum Series We can remember just a few years ago heading to any summer or fall Steelhead destination and in three to five full days of fishing seeing just a handful of Spey rods on any given river. Nowadays, take the same trip and you're more than likely to see just a handful of single handed fly rods donned by Steelheaders. At Beulah, blossoming into full blown two-handed Spey rods just three years ago seemed correct on timing and a natural extension of the Switch Rod series we were about to unleash and change fisherman's minds about what a fly rod could be. We have noticed one thing that all Spey fishing has in common over the last few years, that is; neither two manufactures nor fisherman can generally agree on anything Spey related from casting technique, to properly lining the rod. We've also found that in the Spey game when you are chasing Anadromous fish you never know if you are twenty minutes or two days away from your next pull. It is all of these factors and questions about lines, casting technique, flies and what part of the water column best suits success that adds to the mystique, wonderment and thrill of fishing a two-hand fly rod. |

Eleven and half feet and extremely light in hand, this
spey rod is essentially an extension of the popular Beulah Switch Series.
Excellent choice for small and mid size streams for summer steelheading,
especially when back-casting quarters are tight. The 11'6" also makes a
great cross-over rod for streamer fishing monster rainbows and browns.
Don't under estimate this stick. It has plenty of punch to turn over tips
and bigger flies. |

This rod is weapon of choice for the Beulah staff as well
as many other dedicated two-hand steelhead fisherman. This rod can do the
work of many 13'-14'0 rods, is forgiving enough to be a sound choice for
the beginning spey caster and refined enough for those "in the know"
casters with many years of spey experience behind them. This is the rod
that put Beulah on the map with the coined phrase "Dude it's a $400.00 rod
that casts, feels, and looks like a $700.00 rod". Recommended lines: |

rivers. It has the ability to cross-over into winter with enough throttle
to turn over lots-o-T-14 and big, bigger, or biggest winter flies. With
extra length and the most forgiving action in this series this rod makes a
sound first timers choice and a good pick if you can only own one and need
the ultimate in versatility. Recommended lines:

| Vastly different from Beulah Classic Spey Series, these offer a more traditional flex pattern that loads much deeper into the butt section, has a fast and terrific feeling tip recovery and is feather weight in hand. The new Platinum series are designed around brand new mandrels and possess a Carbon scrim process, lower 28% resin count to bring the overall blank weight down and a much higher blank pressure rolling technique that insures better overall blank consistency. |

A true “trout” spey seems like a great idea.
At Beulah, they had a hard time wrapping their minds around the idea that a 5
weight spey rod needing 380-400 grain load was actually fun for trout.
So, they created the newly released 11’7” 5 weight Platinum! You’ll find
a sweet spot between 250-300 grains depending on your line choice. Fish Redsides on the Deschutes employing soft
hackles on a floating line or small to medium streamer patterns w/sink
tips on the Yakima, blitz down to the Rogue, Klamath and Trinity later
in the season fishing Half Pounders with the possibility of mature 3-7
pound Steelies. Truly a casting dream and a blast to fish, the new 5
weight Platinum makes a perfect trout spey and is ready for that
surprise “trophy” fish. |

If Beulah two handed rods were a baseball
team, our NEW Platinum 12’6” #6 weight would be the MVP. Thanks to
Beulah's
carbon scrim, the blank weighs only 2.85 ounces and the completed rod
weighs only 6.5 ounces. What kind of 6 weight is it? Spot on! This rod
features a more traditional full-flex “Spey” action that loads deep into
the butt section with extremely fast tip recovery making it a joy to
cast in all conditions. You can call us, because the answer is YES! It will
handle big water and big brute Steelhead while not overpowering the
smallish 3-4 pound fish making them special too. All line types and
styles including Scandinavian, Skagit, Mid or Long Belly will agree and
excel when matched to our Platinum 12’6” 6 weight. |

Maybe the “Sweetheart” in the series! Mainly
because this rod can be fished confidently anywhere in the lower 48 and
abroad for summer or winter Steelhead and will cross-over into Chinook
territory. Beulah's new 13’2” Platinum is not an 8 weight in 7 weight
clothing, it is an extremely “Crisp” 7 weight that loads easily with a
variety of lines and casting styles. The finished rod weighs only 6.8
ounces making it easy to fish long hard days on the water chasing
“Steel”. Ridiculously light in hand this rod balances with reels as
light as 8 ounces and handles reels nicely to 11 ounces. You won’t have
a hard time finding a place for this rod in your two-handed quiver!

Beulah Platinum 12’4” 8wt~ There is
little more addicting in the angling world than swinging a fly and
coaxing a take from a bright Steelhead or Salmon that has just entered a
coastal river system. Fresh in from the ocean these fish can take many
casts to find, and a lot of skill and luck to land. A rugged coastal
stream with a steep gradient can make the challenge even more intense.
The Beulah 12’4” 8wt was designed to meet this challenge. Light yet
stout, this rod will allow you to cast in tight quarters using heavy
tips and weighted flies with the potential to cover miles of water
without fatiguing. With extra power in reserve, the 12’4” 8wt Platinum
Spey rod casts intruders and T-14 like most rods casts a dry fly. |

| The Beulah and Switch Rods are nearly synonymous. The term "Switch" means that these rods are comfortable to use both as single-hand and two-hand casting. Beulah introduced the first full line of Switch rods when they came to market back in ’05. What was then considered an oddity is now a staple of every manufacturer’s line up. |

Beulah Classic Switch Rods The Beulah Fly Rods Classic Series is what originally put us on the map. Made using time proven traditional construction from high modulus graphite and glass scrim, these rods are both light and strong. We designed these rods to compete with the big boys in both performance and appearance without the gaudy price tag. With a full line up from small creek trout rods to big water Spey rods there is something here for any fishing challenge. The Beulah Classic Switch Rods were the first full line of Switch rods when they came to market back in ’05. What was then considered an oddity is now a staple of every manufacturer’s line up. What makes these rods stand out is their diverse functionality, custom appearance and user friendly action. Matching a fly line to each rod just seemed like a natural progression. |

The last five years has brought Beulah through the next evolution of graphite
technology that can now be experienced with any their our Platinum series
Switch Rods. The Platinum series was, until recently, only a concept developed to
build lighter, more enjoyable Spey rods. What they found was that the
construction lent itself to higher performance rods all around. The Platinum
series is considerably lighter in weight than the Classic Series Rods. Platinum series construction is based on a carbon scrim process which puts Beulah rods amongst the lightest in the industry. |
