CF Burkheimer trout rods have been quietly taking over the quality trout waters the world over. Find an angler that quietly goes about his business, casts a beautiful line with accuracy and precision and has a grin on his face that stretches ear to ear, more than likely you&';ll find a Burkie in his hand. Need&&';;n to throw a #12 Green Drake or #16~18 Elk Hair in the riffle? That&&';;s our 590-4. Out head hunting on the Henry&&';;s Fork Ranch section? Present your trout offerings confidently with our 489-4 DAL nicknamed "The Ranch Rod". Picky Bow&&';;s selectively feeding on Midges, Micro Caddis, PMD&&';;s in a Spring Creek or glass smooth back eddy? Look to the 389-4. There are a host of fishy challenges and situations out there, and we&&';;ve got a rod for them all. Our trout rods are light in the hand, and heavy in performance. If they don&&';;t cast 15~20 feet with good feel and turnover, then rifle out an honest 70&&';;+ they&&';;re not a Burkheimer. We build rods that you&&';;ll love to fish with, because that&&';;s our passion and commitment to you and to the sport we are devoted to and love so much. Our trout rods contain the most current State-of-the -Art technology. We refrain from using buzz-word marketing lingo to describe tapers or models. That&&';;s not the Burkheimer way. Instead, we prefer to focus on designing and crafting exceptional fly rods-fly rods with that "Burkie feel" and performance. Burkheimer trout rods are available in three distinct build styles; the only difference is hardware and cosmetics. Whether you choose a Vintage, Presentation, or Classic, they all feature the same solid Burkheimer design and action. It starts with the blanks we design and roll in house. We build from there.
