Snake Brand is pleased to introduce to the market Double Dyed Burl to complement those Switch Rods and Spey Rods.
Snake Brand has been an industry leader for over twenty-five years. Our goal has always been to be the leader in creativity, innovation, and performance. We looked at the offerings for Spey Fly Rods and found that there was room for improvement. We designed a specific new series of guides to improve the performance of Spey Rods. Our round helix and our proprietary ECO Finish are the perfect combination to increase line speed and distance. The rods' performance and casting ability are an art form, however, the reel seat inserts were rather plain. With this in mind, we developed a double-dyed burl which enhances and provides the finishing touches to your work of art.
Mother Nature has provided unique burl with beautiful grain patterns that readily accept dyes. The result is beautiful color patterns based on the hardness and tightness of the grain in the burls. Mother Nature does not create any two pieces that are identically matched, color patterns may close to samples that we have photographed, however no two are the same. These inserts and their beautiful hardware will complement your specialty rod.
This is a species of wood that features beautiful creamy yellows, brown tones and at times black lines that highlight the beauty of this unique wood. This is a perfect match for bamboo rods.
The burl is similar to maple but has tighter eye patterns. It comes in a rich coffee color in the heart wood and creamy white tones in the sapwood. I am eager to dye some of this wood in the near future.
This is a burled wood that grows below the ground. It features highly figured woods that take a finish nicely. The color tones range from a dark grey to lighter grey with some that may have a combination of grey and creamy yellow.
Buckeye is unique with its marbleized patterns and beautiful eyes. The color tones range from spectacular yellows to blue-grey tones to yellows with black and solid creamy yellow. Our dyed buckeye is just stunning.
Because of minerals in the soil this burl when dyed can yield green tones and swirled marble plum tones with hints of black. The finished inserts have an almost translucent quality.
We offer highly figured maple burl, spalted maple and dyed maple. Maple burl when dyed features beautiful eye patterns with a plum coloration throughout the figuring.

Mother Nature has again taken her color pallet and created burl that have numerous configurations that complement finely crafted fly rods. Most common are lighter toned burls with colorful eye patterns and swirls in the grain. These range from a blonde color to lighter brown tones. Another variation is cream spalt that provides white tones throughout the burl.
Lastly there is black lined spalt that outlines the creamy yellows.
We offer highly figured maple burl, spalted maple and dyed maple. Maple burl when dyed features beautiful eye patterns with a plum coloration throughout the figuring.
This is an amazing wood, it yields reddish brown tones with dark eyes. I first saw this wood in custom knife handles and I knew that I must find this wood to offer it to our valued customers. I later found the Flamed Redwood, it has rich warm tones coupled with the beautiful golden banding that picks up light in every direction is truly unique.
Some of the finest shotguns ever made feature this wood. Having spent time cutting into trunks of trees searching for the pieces with swirls that are highly figured pieces I can state that almost all of the good trees have been cut for their burls which are sent to Spain to be peeled for high end veneers. We will be able to offer these pieces for a short time as most of the really good trees have been cut in the last twenty years.
