Steve retired from the world of high finance and the hustle and bustle of suburban Chicago in the mid-1990s. He and his family relocated to the laid back community of West Linn, Oregon, just south of Portland where he promptly converted his garage into a cane rod craftsman’s paradise. Kiley rods are based on the classic tapers of master craftsman such as Hiram Leonard, Lyle Dickerson, and Pinky Gillum. All of Steve’s rods utilize the finest Chinese Tonkin cane and incorporate high quality, nickel silver agate stripping guides, Snake® brand bronze snake guides and nickel silver Bellinger ferrules with matching hardwood ferrule plugs and nickel silver winding checks. The Bellinger reel seats feature premium wood inserts and nickel silver hardware. The rods are finished with expertly wound silk wraps and a proven multi-layer polyurethane varnish, applied glass smooth, in a specially engineered facility to ensure top notch functionality and enduring beauty.

All of Steve's rods are offered in a standard model complete with custom made bag, labeled aluminum tube and standard hardwood ferrule plug(s) and a Deluxe model which features beautifully crafted inlaid mosiac butt caps, ferrule plugs, and winding checks in your choice of Turqouis or Black Onyx. Simply put, your new Kiley Classic will not disappoint!

*************** IN STOCK NOW! ***************

Steve Kiley Model 664D ~ 6.5' ~ 2/2 ~ 2.7 oz. ~ 4wt. ~ New ~ Stephen Kiley began making bamboo fly rods around 1975, although it is only recently that his fine work has begun to show up on a regular basis. This one is based on a Dickerson 6611 taper that Steve lightly tweaked resulting in a sweet little small stream wand. It will handle a DT-3, WF-4 and/or DT-4. I liked it best with a Cortland Clear Creek WF-4. It features blonde cane, 3 x 3 spiral nodes, deep red silks tipped black, smooth and tight fitting N/S ferrules with an inlaid big leaf maple burl ferrule plug and matching Big Leaf Maple burl reel seat with N/S cap and ring hardware. Everything Steve offers simply exudes quality... from the top shelf cane and hardware, the elegantly stamped reel seat, inlaid ferrule plug, and premium bag and labeled tube.$995
