Hand made in the US from reclaimed wood by a master craftsman who is also a fly fisherman. This 3rd hand is really fly rod insurance. When I was 7 or so, my dad took me fishing one Saturday. Little did I know he had just purchased a new 10 wt rod and he was testing it on that day. He set up his rod, rested it in the door of the pinto station wagon and I slammed the door shut, which made for the worlds shortest fishing trip and longest 2 hour drive home.

So, spare your friends and family the pain of broken fly rods and buy a half dozen of these 3rd hands.
