“It was a really special experience to get to design a rod for my wife, every aspect was customized just for her right down to the personalized inscription April puts on every rod for you. She loves it and I gotta say I do too! If it didn’t have her name on it I might try and swipe it from her, I don’t even care that it is Sparkly Lavender!”

“I ordered my SaraBella rod in 2018 when I got tired of using my manfriend’s rods. It was time for one of my own! From my initial email inquiries to the time I received my rod in the mail, April was amazingly communicative and helped me choose the best rod for my newbie fishing needs. This rod feels like an extension of my arm and I feel confident when casting – I know exactly where my fly is going each time I cast. Additionally, the rod is beautiful. I love looking at it and fishing with it. Someday I’m going to order one in every weight just so I can have all the pretty rods!”

“I love my Sara Bella rod! It makes me happy every time I see it. It’s got great action, and it feels like it’s made for me–because it was! I took it to my local fly store to show it off, and even the manly guys behind the counter loved the rod and the great colors. I like that SaraBella is a locally owned small business, started by a woman with women’s needs in mind, hires veterans and other survivors.”

“Working with April and the folks at SaraBella was wonderful. They paid a lot of attention to the details I wanted in my 6 wt. 9ft. fly rod. I have to say that my rod casts GREAT! especially for a heavier rod. Any guides I have gone out with with this rod absolutely love how it casts.”

“I love my little slim handle on my lavender rod and of course the sparkly colors!!! Great rods for women and with Veterans working. With the smaller handle size, my 9’5# is a great rod for all day fishing. The 9’7# is fabulous at 11 mile with the high winds.”

“Absolutely beautiful craftsmanship!! A big thank you to everyone for everything that you do and for allowing and giving permission to all of us who don’t try to be different, but just don’t want to be the same as everyone else, to be, in a nutshell, us. It is truly a piece of art and gives me the same pleasure to look at as any of our art. Those catfish had better watch out, because there’s a sparkly pink fly rod coming to get them!!”

“I first read about SaraBella while searching for rod companies in Colorado on a buy-local mission. Then, the company popped up on my Instagram feed. I decided to dig a little deeper and fell in love witheverythingSB! Woman-owned and run with a mission to empower other women?! The website reads, April (CEO of SB Fishing, rad woman and great caster!) “believes in women’s rights and the significance of empowering women to impact the world in smart, beautiful ways.” For me, a woman, mother, and passionate angler hoping to inspire other women to indulge in this amazing activity, I couldn’t help but feel inspired to fish one of their rods.”

It is all so well organized and to top it off, the fly you attached to the card is awesome.Thank you so much for everything.” Also, thank you SaraBella for another beautiful and very capable rod. Incredible fish and an incredible fight. This was bent to the max, bringing this fish in.”

“I was blown away with my rod (I fished my copper Native one) as was my guide. I had that thing flinging flies all the way across the Yampa at a pretty wide stretch of water. Their performance matches their beauty.”
