Factory Sale Shop

Every year we have loan rods for customers to try.  Sometimes they come to Bruce  & Walker to try them.  Sometimes we send them to our retailers, for their customers to try before they buy.  These loan rods are often just wiggled about in a shop, or cast out a line on our own casting meadow.  A few are tried on water.  At the end of each year, we have the loan rods back as ex-demos.  Some are refurbished and returned to the shops.  Others are retained at the factory.  And it varies from year to year.
At the same time, every year we are designing and making new blanks and prototypes.  We are trying different combinations of carbon, for different actions, and experimenting with a variety of colours of paint, whippings, hand tippings and fittings. 
Here are just a few of the ex-demos and prototypes, in various conditions, looking for a permanent home.  They are all fully covered by our guarantee against manufacturing faults.  They are not guaranteed against car boot accidents, mice attacks, puppy damage, cows adding a little fibre to their diet, or a serious tugging when caught up on a rock at the bottom of the river.   
Particularly for the prototype rods, what they all have is uniqueness.  There will not be another rod in the world identical to them.  They truly are a “one off” and cannot be obtained anywhere else.  


 If you would like further details regarding any of these rods, please don’t hesitate to be in touch.  We’re always pleased to hear from you.
