Tom Morgan Rodsmiths

[Stephen Louw]

I bought a reel from Tom once, and rate his 2-piece 5-weight as the best rod I have ever cast (but sadly don't own).

I have a 5wt fibreglass blank sitting at home that I am too nervous to start building. . . . . Its like owning a unicorn

Read this a few years ago. Nice piece about a legendary guy. Imagine what his rods are worth now that he has passed on...

I didnt realise he had passed . . . Thats sad news.

Yip, I have a 7ft something 5wt Glass blank:

He has MS and recently sold his business, but I don't think he died. Did he?

Brilliant. Make sure you only use slightly undersized agate guides, Tom's signature build.
