Pictured above is the west wall of our show room where 32 different models of Spey rods are on display.  There are many more models in the stock-room that won't fit on the wall.  Steelhead fishing is a passion at The Fly Fishing Shop. We are surrounded by steelhead and salmon rivers; huge rivers, big rivers, medium rivers and small rivers.  These rivers offer a diversity of  angling opportunities and  challenges.  That is why our selection of Spey rods is so large, so you can have just the right rod for every situation.  Other reasons are that we really like fishing with Spey rods.  We like experimenting with Spey rods and learning about Spey rods.  We like playing with Spey rods and talking to other Spey fishers about Spey rods. We might be called Spey obsessed. Spey rods are very cool. And we have cast every rod pictured here and caught fish on most.

C.F. Burkheimer Spey Rods

C.F. Burkheimer Spey Rods
Mark Bachmann with a Spring Chinook caught with a CF9143-3 Burkheimer. 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 seven most sought after models.  These rods are built by hand and are in much demand. Production is limited.
We have been testing and fishing with Burkheimer rods since 2001.

Winston Spey Rods
Boron IIX Spey Rods

Winston introduced their revolutionary BIIX Series of two-handers in 2005 with two models. That same year Winston's head rod designer, Sam Drukman added expert Spey caster, Andre Scholz to the Winston team. Two more models have been added since then. Winston Spey rods are smooth as butter and each model will cast a wide range of line weights and fit a wide range of casting and fishing styles. Winston BIIX rods are very lightweight, but incredibly durable. In 2006 and 2007 the Winston B2X78133 was the single most popular model of Spey rod sold at our store.


Temple Fork Outfitters Spey Rods

Pro Series Deer Creek Series

Temple Fork Outfitters rods are designed in the United States and production of the rods is done in a proprietary plant in South Korea. This approach has some distinct advantages in that the best technology is used, but at reduced production costs, which brings great value to the consumer. Lefty Kreh is the chief designer of the Pro Series. Last year Mike Kinney and Bob Meiser joined the staff and introduced the Deer Creek Series. The Pro Series offers are Plain-Jane rods that are perfect for entry level casters and for guides who furnish gear. The dear Creek Series are muscle rods with refined cosmetics that will appeal to Spey casters of all skill levels. Dear Creek rods offer incredible performance at mid-range prices.

Echo Rods

Classic Rods Scandinavian Rods

Designed and produced by tournament caster, Tim Rajeff these Eight models of beautiful Spey rods spent almost two years in the making. To say that Tim is a perfectionist is an understatement. The Echo "Classic" rods are the culmination of countless hours of tinkering and testing. There are four models of traditional action Spey rods in the Classic Series that range from 12 1/2' to 14', which covers nearly every salmon & steelhead situation in North America. The The Echo2 Scandinavian series of fly rods feature two tips, one for long distance and one for shorter presentations. These Scandi rods are shorter and have much faster actions than the Classic Series. Both series are highly adaptable to many situations.
