Does anyone know if there is any company or brand of reel seats & eyes where all of the parts are made in the Good Ole USA. I know most of the companies that make the blanks here in the USA, but would like to find the companies that make the other parts here. I have a guy wanting me to build him a rod but he wants all parts to be from the USA. Is this possible ? Re: American made Rod parts

The best bet is with a fly rod. Don't forget to use a hardwood,foam core,or birch bark grip on it. Don't want any cork on it.
Trying not to add attitude to my response. :-/ Re: American made Rod parts

Nothing wrong in trying to get as much USA products on a rod, I try to do that as much as possible. Here is a list that I know off the top of my head Lemke reel seats,REC , AFTCO and Snake Brand guides.Can still find NOS Varmac and Mildrum stuff as well. Re: American made Rod parts
