Health issues; 

Sadly we are cutting back our workload due to health reasons, Alan has been diagnosed with heart failure, therefore has had to re-evaluate life and work choices, so no more later nights until 4/5am which will have a knock on effect on the work that can be undertaken. Effective immediately we will be taking on no more custom builds, we can have these done for you via a 3rd party at cost price to you, or you can take a look at our recommended rod builders page.

The rest of the business, ie Rods, blanks, fittings, lines, sales, advice etc will remain the same for the time being, though we may cut back certain items, but it won't affect the core of the business.

​

On the back of this news, sad though it is, it's possible we would consider sensible offers for the rods/blanks side of the business and split it back into Rede River and Bloke Rods and two separate businesses.

​

Our reels are slowly under construction now, though as expected we are experiencing some teething problems along the way.

New switch & spey lines have had a little delay coming to us, they will be here soon enough.

Our very popular Trebuchet Spey rods will be getting an expansion.

We have an update to our rods range which we will start to introduce in 2026.

We also have a new spinning rod blank coming soon, which we will expand upon over the course of time.

​

New products are constantly being added to the website so please keep an eye out for them and please subscribe to our emails, we won't bombard you with them, but we will keep you up to date with the on-goings of the company and new products.
