Synopsis
Not everyone should own or fish a split cane bamboo fly rod. Some folks are just too addicted to high tech. After all bamboo only offers a fly rod that warms the heart, bounces the summer sun in a thousand different directions and is uniquely in tune with the rhythms of the rivers, streams and lakes it touches. Bamboo's unique characteristics made it one of the finest choices for the construction of fly rods. Its' flexibility, recoil and recovery and overall toughness were just the qualities that have traditionally been most appreciated in working fishing gear. There's just nothing quite like a well-made split cane rod for performance and "feel". And there's nothing like the satisfaction of bringing one of these classic rods back to life. Hands on advice, tips and instructions for bringing that classic bamboo fly rod back to life. From how bamboo rods are put together to repairing cracks, splits, broken ferrules, cork grip repair and replacement to the do's and don'ts of windings., Not everyone should own or fish a split cane bamboo fly rod.

    This is an outstanding seller to deal with. Fair prices that are more than reasonable in this economy. The product is in better condition than described, a true value for my money. Packaged and shipped well shows seller has concern for the products he sells to arrive in excellent condition. The seller is friendly and communicates timely with his customers. I highly recommend this seller and would do business again anytime. Thank you!

    Great seller! Item is what I ordered; good communication; shipped promptly; good value. NOTE TO SELLER: packaging was NOT appropriate for item; it was a flimsy, plastic envelope, with no stiff material to prevent creases. The book came with two deep creases that involved the *entire* item: one is a 1" triangle lower left side (bound edge); the other is a 7" triangle on upper right side (open edge).

  • good beginners book on rod repair

    The book is a quick guide for the beginner who wishes to make simple repairs to bamboo rods. It contains information about about some of the common rod builders. The book does not contain as much detailed information as other rod building and restoration books.
