CTS Fly Rod Blanks

The making of every CTS rod or blank is as much about science as it is art. That’s where the company’s founder, Stephen Pratt, and his team come in.

With a technology degree from Massey University, the curiosity of an inventor and a passion to create the perfect fishing rod, Stephen established CTS in 1999. Since then, thousands of fishermen and custom rod builders have beaten a path to his door.

Continuous innovation of CTS products is driven by a desire to revolutionize the experience of fishing, rather than to innovate merely for the sake of change. And, by concentrating on quality rather than volume, the team has created a name for CTS worldwide.
