new rod
Well, I'm going to do it. I'm picking up my very first bamboo rod today. I've always resisted it in the past, and I'm more than a little nervous about what this first rod may mean for my financial future but I can't resist anymore. Wish me luck, and keep my wallet in your prayers.

PS Don't anyone even THINK of suggesting that I rush out and buy a silk line to go with it. http://www.flyanglersonline.com/bb/wink.gif

JermeyH,
Be aware that fishing with bamboo is addictive! You are going to love it. My fly fishing started with a bamboo rod when I was a teenager. Like you, I recently purchased some bamboo. You can get plenty of good advice here on picking the proper line and care for the rod. Good luck and enjoy. http://www.flyanglersonline.com/bb/smile.gif

Jeremy, let me know if I can give you any help steering you in the right direction.

JeremyH,
Cast a grass stick with plastic line? Shame! Rush out and buy a worm poo line ASAP. (let me know how you like that new rod, silk line, etc)

Are you gonna get a Silk line, or a Sylk line? I know the former os more traditionalist, but the latter is a very nice sub as I've read many times on the boards. Congrats, and tight lines
