“This is no ordinary workshop. It's part of the history of Polish angling.”
I. Why made to order
A rod off the shelf is always a compromise
Factory tackle is made for the average angler. You fish one particular way, on particular water, with a particular cast. A rod built around you works the way you do, and stays with you for decades.
Built for your technique
Action, length and fittings matched to the method and lures you actually fish with, not to a catalogue average.
Built for your hand
A handle of natural cork shaped to your grip, balanced for your reel. After hours of casting you feel the difference.
Simply yours
Silk thread wraps, a dedication, decoration or engraving. The only rod of its kind in the world, with a build card from the workshop.
II. How it works
How your rod is made
-
A conversation
A phone call or a visit to the workshop. We ask about your method, your water, your lures and your reel, and what your current rod lacks.
-
Design and quote
We choose the blank, guides, handle and decoration. You get one clear quote, with no hidden extras.
-
Hand build
Dozens of hours at the bench: guides wrapped in silk thread, the cork shaped by hand, the finish applied coat by coat.
-
Collection
Once the job is finished, collect it in person in Lublin or have it couriered in an insured tube. We ship rods worldwide, each with a build card and care instructions.

Fishing is not just equipment. We have two books on which we have worked from the point of view of the idea and translation, and hand-made works – paintings on the subject of fishing.

What anglers say
“Many years of tradition in making rods, sold all over the world. A family firm. A rod from here is a true work of art.”
“Passion, knowledge and experience: you can feel it in the conversation and in the atmosphere of the workshop!”
“They know their trade, and they work from good quality materials.”
Let's talk about your rod
A conversation and a quote cost nothing. Call or write, and we'll tell you straight what makes sense for your fishing.
