Learn how to design and build a custom salmon, steelhead, bass or saltwater rod with hands-on coaching from Prolite. Whether you want a fully guided all-inclusive rod building class or a design-and-build workshop where you choose the components, you’ll leave with professional techniques and a rod built your way.
We can work with your schedule — weekdays or weekends. Small groups welcome.
A flexible, hands-on class focused on layout, guide spacing, epoxy work, thread wraps, and finishing techniques. You select the blank and components to suit your target species and fishing style. Perfect for anglers who want control over materials and cost.
Show up and build. We bundle the blank and core components, then guide you step-by-step from handle fitment to guide wrapping and finishing. Ideal if you want a streamlined experience without shopping for parts.
We’re custom rod builders based in the Pacific Northwest, helping anglers craft salmon, steelhead, bass, trout and saltwater rods that fish exactly how they want. Our workshops are hands-on, small-group, and focused on real techniques you’ll use at home.
We’ll coordinate dates that work — weekdays or weekends. Private sessions and small groups are welcome. Planning for a club event or corporate team day? Contact us and we’ll set it up.
Tell us what you want to build and when you’d like to come in. We’ll reply quickly with available dates and a parts plan.
