About Me

Hi, I’m Caeman Feller, the founder of Feller Custom Rods. I grew up in the mountains of Western Maryland, along the banks of the Savage River—one of the state's premier trout fisheries. Fishing has been my passion for as long as I can remember, but my journey into custom rod building began when I was just 12 years old.While flipping through a Cabela's catalog, I stumbled upon a Flex Coat Rod Building Starter Kit and instantly knew I had to give it a try. I got the kit for my 13th birthday and shortly after, I built my very first rod—a St. Croix SCIII 5'6" UL. The moment I landed a fish on a rod I had built myself, I was hooked.Throughout high school, I continued crafting rods for myself and family. Even during my time at the University of Maryland, where I studied Mechanical Engineering, I found time to build a few when I could. But it wasn’t until I moved back to Western Maryland after college that my passion for rod building truly took off. A friend introduced me to Centerpin Fishing, and I immediately knew I had to build my own setup. I built a 10' Proof Fly Fishing 3/4wt for inland trout—and for the next three months, I barely put it down.As I spent more time on the water, other anglers started noticing my rods and asking about them. What started as a hobby quickly grew into a business. By 2021, Feller Custom Rods was born. Since then, I’ve built hundreds of rods for a wide range of applications, including ultralight trout, steelhead, salmon, bass, walleye, striped bass, fluke/flounder, surf fishing, and even offshore tuna.Every rod I build is crafted with precision, passion, and an understanding of what anglers need to succeed on the water. I am always striving to hone my craft and ensure that the next rod I build is even better than my last. I can’t wait to see where this journey takes me next!
