Sylmar Rods started with a simple need—a rod built for the waters I fish—shaped by punk DIY roots and a drive to do it my own way.

What started as one rod in a garage has grown into a mission: Craft high-performance rods for the working-class angler.

From Baja California to Northern California and beyond, Sylmar Rods are designed to meet the challenge—whether it’s big bass, tuna, trout or anything in-between. Each rod represents a piece of homegrown craft, made for anglers who want something real.
