Highland Mills Original Series

Highland Mills Rod Co. was born of a desire to bring to market a consistently high quality bamboo rod that casts beautifully, looks and feels good, and is reasonably priced.

Good cane rods have become very expensive, out of the reach of many enthusiasts. Thanks to Highland Mills, you can now enjoy the pleasures and benefits of a beautiful bamboo rod for less than the cost of a decent graphite rod. From a 3 weight wand to a 6 weight cannon, we have a rod that is right for the flies, water, and style of your fishing.

All Highland Mills rods offer crisp actions, thus allowing a seamless transition from casting graphite.

Features:

2 piece rods with 2 tips

Nickel Silver Slide band Reelseat on 3 & 4 wt Rods

Nickel Silver Ferrules

Varnished, brown tone cane

Anodized Screw Lock Reelseat on 5 & 6 wt Rods

Highland Mills Original 7'6" 5 weight
$549.00
4 1/8 oz
5 Weight Rods:
When longer casts are need, or there is some wind, a 5 weight rod is the best choice. Considered by many to be the “go to” rod, a 5 weight is versatile enough to cover most situations that you might encounter during a long day fishing. We offer three 7’6” rods and one 8’0” for a 5 weight line.
If the wind kicks up, and you need to switch to a weight nymph or observe a rise to a grasshopper, a 5 weight line can handle a large variety of situations. The 8 footer is very useful when there are currents between you and that rise, and you need to keep more line off the water.
If you find the need to tie on a 7x tippet and present a #24 Baetis, a 5 weight in bamboo is still delicate enough to handle the job.
