Introducing the new "North Branch" series rod from BHT. 

A more economical way to enjoy a Brack Hill Tackle split bamboo rod.  Available in all of the 2-piece actions listed below, the North Branch rods are made with the same high gloss varnished bamboo and action as all other rods, but are assembled  with 1 tip section, anodized aluminum reel seat with hardwood filler and clear finish aluminum storage tube and cap.  See the comparison chart below for features and price range of all three series of Brack Hill Tackle fly rods.

A very light rod based on the classic Paul Young Midge rod.  Medium progressive action ideally suited for lighter dry flies and small nymphs.  Still fairly powerful for it's size, this rod is capable of handling 30' - 40' casts with little difficulty.

Another very light rod based on a Dickerson 7012 taper.  I would consider the action of this rod to be a classic soft, progressive action best suited for light dry fly fishing in smaller streams.

A light but powerful rod based on a Wayne Cattanach taper.  Very comfortable with a DT 4 line, this is one of the fastest action rods I make.  In spite of it's size, this little rod will cast up to 60' and is a delight with smaller dry flies and nymphs.

The 3 piece version of the rod listed above - slightly heavier but able to pack in a 29" tube.

Based on another Wayne Cattanach taper, this is the sleeper of the bunch - my most popular rod.  This is a parabolic action rod that is the smoothest casting rod you will find.  Comfortable with 20' to 60' casts, the rod gently continues to work towards the grip as the length of line increases.  Not too slow - not too fast - just right!

A nice, tight, fast rod based on one of the heavier Dickerson 7613 tapers. I would call this a fast progressive action that will cast a DT 5 line up to 50' with most dry flies, medium  nymphs and light streamers.  This is a rod that most folks feel comfortable casting right away!

This rod is based on the Dickerson 8013 taper which is a classic progressive action.  This rod will easily cast up to 60' with most dry flies, nymphs and light streamers.  Somewhat similar to the rod above, the extra 6" helps with line control and is closer to a medium, progressive action.

The strongest rod I routinely make, based on the Dickerson 8014 taper which I consider to be a strong progressive action.  This rod will cast up to 70' with just about any kind of dry fly as well as most heavy nymphs and streamers.  This is my Montana rod!
