Mary Lu and I make up what we like
to refer to as a "Small Rod Company." We are Performance
Fly Rods,
just the two of us. When you call Performance Fly Rods you will
be talking with us. This site hopes to bring
you to us. Below are the links that will take you to its various
parts. Please take the time to enjoy our work.
The Small Rod Company: who we
are and what we do. Prices: our complete list of rod models
and their prices. Blanks: an explanation of the rod blanks
we use and what to expect from the rods built from them. Grips: the grips we typically use
in our rods, how we do them and what they look like. Pictures: a page filled with very
high quality photos of our rods and us. More Pictures: a second picture
