Lots of very good builders out there, but i only have experience of kev clayton. Very happy with my rods, and would be my go too for any other rods i had built.

I had a set of 12'6 Aviator Plus built by Calvin Hancock earlier this year. Highly recommended. Good communication, knows his stuff, quoted 7 weeks and delivered in 7 weeks and excellent quality. Would definitely use him again.

Would recommend Kev Clayton in a heartbeat. I didn't have anything fancy on my rods but they didn't work out anymore expensive than factory built rods. I would contact him tho if you're looking for a quick turnaround as he's very busy at the moment .

Calvin built my rods, agree with everything said here, genuine craftsman, mine must be two years old now and still like new

You won't regret this! I have these rods customs built with cork too! Amazing tools. Had a lesson with Mark Hutchinson yesterday with them too! Weapons!
