8’ · 4-Weight · 3-Piece · Bamboo Ferrules
The High Country is built for anglers who don’t stop when the road does. Originally designed for my son—the kind of guy who pushes the extremes on every trail he roams—this rod reflects that same spirit.
Hollowed in the butt and mid to reduce weight without sacrificing strength, and finished with a swelled butt for added backbone when wind, current, or fish push back, this rod carries easily and fishes hard. Everyone who picks it up has a hard time putting it down.
Bamboo ferrules keep the bend clean—no hinge points, no soft spots—making it dependable for roll casts, uneven footing, and long days far from help.
Proven in the Weminuche Wilderness and nicknamed the Rio Grande Cuttie, this rod was made to be strapped to a pack, dragged through timber, and trusted when you’re fully committed.
Built for the Long Way In.
Base pricing includes one tip, cork grip of your choice, nickle silver stripping guide with agate insert, silk wrapping, custom nickle silver downlocking hardware, custom wood reel seat insert made in house, 2” aluminum tube and rod sock.
Note: Ratan grips are fabricated as a half wells style only.
