You’re not looking at another production model.
Most rods on the market are built to a price point. Components are chosen for margin. Blanks are sourced overseas and assembled fast. The result is a rod that performs within a range — fine for the average, not built for you.
Every rod on this page came out of our shop. The builder who made it fishes the same waters you do. The components were selected for this specific application — not because they were in stock or on sale. That’s the difference you’ll feel the first time you cast it.
Every rod we sell, we build.
This rod was built by us — same shop, same hands that built the last one and will build the next. If you want something configured around your technique, species, and style, here’s how a custom build works.
Tell us how you fish
Species, technique, water type, and how you want the rod to feel. The more you share, the better we can build.
Choose your components
Blank, guides, handle, reel seat, and finish. Every decision shapes how the finished rod performs in your hands.
We build it to spec
The same care goes into every rod — whether it’s your first custom or your tenth.
Ships to your door
Built exactly the way it was designed. Ready to fish on any water you point it at.
What anglers are saying
Real feedback from Prolite customers fishing across North America.
“I recently had a custom rod built and added a few touches for a tribute for a lost loved one. Tanis the builder went above and beyond and was super informative. He sent pics and communicated with me through the whole process. I highly recommend this fishing rod company and will be doing business again in the near future.”
“Chris and the talented team behind ProLite Rods are exactly what we want and have missed in this industry for a while now. Their knowledge and guidance in the rod building process matches the highest quality components they use. I was attracted to the fact they fish and fine tune the products I am using in the same waters. The team understands what I mean when describing the nuances of needs and application.”
“I’ve had experiences with Chris and ProLite for about ten years now. He is very approachable, accessible, and open minded when it comes to designing custom rods. All my current rods are over 5 years old and have no damage despite my lack of care for them. They may be light but they are not weak! I just ordered my 6th ProLite salmon rod, and his staff called me after the order just to assure everything would be just right.”

What anglers ask before they buy.
Is this rod in stock and ready to ship?
Yes. Pre-built rods on ProliteRods.com are finished builds ready to go. Orders typically ship within 2–3 weeks of purchase.
Can I get this rod in a different configuration?
Absolutely. This is one example of what comes out of our shop. If you want a different length, action, power, handle style, or guide setup — Get Your Estimate → and we’ll put together a build spec for you.
What’s the difference between this rod and a custom build?
This rod was built to a spec our team chose. A custom build starts with your fishing — species, technique, water, feel — and we work backward from there. Both come out of the same shop with the same care. Talk to a Builder → if you’re not sure which is right.
How long does a custom build take?
Custom builds vary by complexity and current queue. Most builds are completed in 4–8 weeks. Get Your Estimate → and we’ll give you a realistic timeline upfront.
Do you stand behind the rods you build?
Every rod we sell leaves our shop built right. If something isn’t right, we want to know. Reach out directly → — we’d rather fix it than have you fishing with something that doesn’t perform.
