This is where it all began.

The Legacy^TM E. C. Powell^TM Bamboo Fly Rod still lives on today.  Its construction was developed by legendary rod builder and fly caster E.C. Powell^TM.  Today, his creations still live on here at Powell^TM, like, hand crafted nickel silver ferrules, incredible attention to detail, and a pleasant medium action that made Powell famous, and provides superb line and loop control that is unfathomable with a cane rod.  These are just a few of the qualities of an E.C Powell^TM Legacy^TM bamboo fly rod. 

For 97 years, our name has been synonymous with fine bamboo and innovative design.  To us, bamboo represents not only the heritage of our sport, but a commitment to craftsmanship.  Creating a bamboo rod is a step by step lengthy process.  Years of refinements, testing, plus knowledge that has been passed down from rod builder to rod builder go into every one. When you pick up a Powell^TM bamboo rod you will be holding something extraordinary and a piece of history.  But don't take our word for it, cast one, or better yet, fish one and see for yourself.  Call for details because these rods are made special for you.
