“I'm the proud owner of 2 rods built by Drew Nix, a 6'6" 2 wt, and a 7'6" 4wt.   Hopefully, I will own more in the future!  The attention to detail and workmanship Drew puts into the rods he builds is second to none, and they are works of love and not a mass produced "production" item.  All you have to do is look at the fit and finish of the rod and make a cast with one, and you'll be hooked (pardon the pun)!"

"I met Drew at a technical conference and naturally the conversation turned to fly fishing.  I described to Andrew how there is over 700 miles of trout water in New Jersey, but most of the streams are relatively small with tight casting conditions.  After some additional conversation, Drew built me a beautiful rod ideal to the circumstances.  The length and action are perfectly suited to the local streams and the workmanship sublime.  He also went the extra distance to assure that I had the ideal reel to compliment the rod.  Talk to Andrew if you are looking for a hand-crafted fly rod of high-quality, fairly priced, beautiful and worthy of passing on to the next generation...you won't be sorry."

"Drew built me a custom 6'6" 2 weight for brook trout fishing. The attention to detail is everywhere... Drew worked with me to choose a reel seat, hardware and a color scheme that I loved. The threadwork is spotless. More importantly, the rod loads well and delivers the fly accurately. I'd recommend Drew's rods to any of my friends."
