Fly Fishing Assortment
Enjoy a selection of unique, hand-tied fishing flies by avid angler and fly tying expert Mark Lewchik of Old Lyme, whose creative flies are sought after by top fly fishing pros. This assortment will not disappoint and offers a great mix to fill your fly box! Included in this assortment is an original framed watercolor by Lewchik, featuring three detailed images of popular freshwater trout.


A Dream Rod for any Angler
This custom-made Jenkins bamboo fly rod delivers understated elegance and performance and flawless workmanship. It is a 7 foot- 9-inch bamboo dry fly rod with two sections and an extra tip. Charles and Steve Jenkins, the custom builders, designed the rod to cast a 5-weight fly line. This rod, in excellent condition, has a cherry reel seat, an agate stripping guide and nickel silver butt cap and ring. The rod, which is lightly flame finished, has a light brown varnish tone, with darker brown guide wraps and yellow trim wraps reminiscent of the color wraps used by the late Jim Payne, a celebrated American bamboo rod maker. The rod comes in a metal case. Jenkins is known throughout the country as one of the best rod builders and remains one of the best values.
