Kerry Burkheimer and his crew build very fine graphite fly rods at his plant, located in Washougal, Washington. Studying under and collaborating with legendary rod designer Russ Peak in the 1980's, Kerry quickly became known as producer of elegantly crafted, high performance fly rods. Little by little Kerry has increased the production of his small factory. We can now offer his nine most sought after models. These rods are built by hand and are in much demand. Production is limited.
Every rod on this page is in stock.
