I recently purchased a Montague 8'6" 3pc bamboo rod.It seems to cast well with a 5wt line.I've only made a few short casts because a couple of the ferrals have hairline cracks.To get to my question.....Can bamboo rods be refinished to be reliable? I see no cracks in the rod itself and seems to be in really good shape.Ya'll come!
