Archie McCarty loves to fish. Beginning with an idea he had in 1998 he began to make fishing handles for himself, his family and a few friends. Before long he was getting calls asking if he could make handles for others. Eventually he developed a line of seven handle styles fit to specific types of rods, and paired them with four different woods that performed well and looked great.
The result is a catalog of 28 possible combinations each made one-at-a-time. And, of course, you can have a truly unique, custom handle made to your exact specifications by the man himself! Just give Archie a call to talk it over.
These handles are sanded and ready for you to apply the epoxy when you finish your rod.

Archie's prices are $10 per handle.

By clicking through the catalog you can see examples of his expert work with beautiful woods - Butternut, Cherry, Walnut - and the most popular by far - Red Cedar.

Look them over and give Archie a call - you'll be fishing in style and comfort real soon! Archie now has a cell phone! Is there hope for him yet? Call him at 507-226-6908 or 507-876-2441!

Here Archie creates a new handle in his workshop. Fishing since the age of three he has learned a thing or two about comfort and performance in fishing gear. Give him a call to discuss your idea for your ultimate fishing handle!
