Welcome. Interesting first post. Please introduce yourself a bit more, and tell us what you are looking for, as the subject is broad. Are you looking for just custom rods or custom rods on custom blanks? There is vast expertise here, but without a more specific question you would do well to just google "custom fiberglass fly rods".

CTS is well known and makes good rods and blanks. They will work with a builder to supply small or large quantities.

tiptop my thank you friend, but to be sincere of preference to little-known companies, because CTS already has a big name in the world market of fly rods and has not in the market her hates of fly in the numbering that interests me (# 0.00 , 00) and for them to produce, I will have to order large quantity (very high price) if not for them the CTS does not compensate the effort to manufacture ..... but thank you for your information my friend ......

Gabriel,
What do you mean by "(0, 00, 000)"?, are these references to line weights?

Gabriel,
KWDK mentioning Blue Heron's blanks is a good direction. In fact, the Japanese rod market is probably your best bet for such light line weight blanks. You could try such American companies as McFarland, Green, Burkhiemer, Lamiglass too see if they would be willing to do a custom blank, to your spec's. The cost of tooling and the limited numbers may make it too expensive for both you and them.

rvreclus good evening my friend, you are quite right in your words, because I have been checking in the Japanese market, and I am quoting .... if you are analyzing the fly rods in those low numbers that I am wanting are not expensive, but due to the financial conditions in the country, if I apply the prices in fair ways I probably will not have sales .... but I will continue searching everywhere until I find something interesting ..... I am very grateful to you of the forum because besides receiving me very well they are helping a lot ..... thank you very much to you RVRECLUS and all others for the magnificent information .....

This is a fine example of the beauty of a bamboo rod: getting any one of dozens of specialty tapers, custom built, one or more, by a custom craftsman.
