  • Features the iconic F.E. Thomas Dirigo taper with progressive diameter increase (70-105") for optimized casting fluidity and fish-fighting backbone
  • Precision-fit 18% nickel silver ferrules ensure seamless energy transfer and decades of reliable performance
  • Crafted from premium six-strip Tonkin bamboo with water-based varnish finish (unvarnished option available)
  • Moderate-fast action excels in delicate dry fly presentations and powerful streamer casts
  • Engineered for medium rivers, lake margins, and structured shorelines targeting trout/bass/pike

This 9ft 3pc 6wt bamboo fly rod blank faithfully recreates the legendary F.E. Thomas Dirigo taper, handcrafted using six-strip Tonkin bamboo. The progressive diameter increase from mid-section (70") to butt (105") delivers controlled flex patterns, paired with 18% nickel silver ferrules that maintain energy transmission integrity. The moderate-fast action provides a smooth loading curve in the first 50" for presentation finesse, transitioning to accelerated power for obstacle-clearing hooksets.

Finished with durable water-based varnish (optional unfinished version available), the blank comes with pre-installed ferrules (custom installation-ready upon request). Ideal for technical dry fly work on medium rivers, long-distance streamer casts across windswept lakes, and structure-rich environments requiring precise fish control. Specifically designed for brown/rainbow trout, smallmouth bass, and northern pike.
