Custom-Built Fishing Rods
Thorne Bros began creating custom-built rods for anglers looking for something beyond standard factory options. Today, our builders continue that tradition with custom-built fishing rods for musky, bass, walleye, trolling, fly, and ice fishing.
Because no two anglers fish exactly alike, our custom fishing rod makers can account for the techniques and preferences that shape how you use a rod on the water. Whether you are looking for a specialized rod for a particular fishing application or have a specific setup in mind, custom-built fishing rods give you an opportunity to choose equipment designed around the way you fish.
best of the best
No one fishes the same so why should everyone's rods be the same? We operate under the thought process that if you can dream it, we can build it.
