Quality fly rod building supplies. Proof Fly Fishing started about 18 years ago in my basement. I was just getting into building fly rods (bamboo at the time) and I kept running into either inconsistent quality or excessively priced tools, materials, and components. As a result I gathered a few dozen like minded rod builders together and we pooled our resources to make bulk purchases. What we noticed was the price went down and the quality went up. As time went on the group began to grow as did the number of products we were sourcing. When the group hit 800 members it was time to open up shop and Proof Fly Fishing was born. Grand Rapids, Michigan

Custom Bamboo Fly Rods for those that enjoy a little Art in their Angling. Located in Grayling, Michigan, The Razing Kane Rod Company overlooks the fabled Au Sable River mainstream. Grayling's legacy as the birthplace of Trout Unlimited is well deserved. Sitting on the banks of the Au Sable and a mere seven miles from the equally famous Manistee River, the town has the extraordinary good fortune of being host to two Blue Ribbon trout streams. It is in this wonderful place that Razing Kane rods are made. Each rod begins life as a single culm of bamboo, hand selected for aesthetics as well as depth of "power fibers", the elastic heart of a split cane fly rod. It is then painstakingly split, tempered, hand planed, and glued into a finished blank to impeccable tolerances. Only the finest components are incorporated. Our rods are finished in nickel silver hardware, either bright or blued, as the customer prefers. Agate or jade strippers are standard on our high end rods, and transparent silk wraps help impart each rod a distinctive personality. Reel seats can be specified in many differant wood species, and grips of flor grade Portugese cork can be formed to the customer's specifications. Grayling, Michigan
