New Bamboo Rod
I am in the planning stages of crafting a bamboo flyrod for myself and son.
I want to use good materials and blank as this will be a rod to pass down to my son.
On fire here got the go from the wife
just a minute ago... Have had the desire
for many years.
I am not ready to hand plane one just yet, so I need to know of a good source for the blank as well as everything I will need to get it done, Tools, jigs,hardware, ect...
Like it to be a 5wg. Can I get some input on a good blank to start with and any other assistance would be welcome and appreciated.
I am open on a price range right now.
Yes I am doing research , just thought I would also put a line out here to see what I may catch.
I am off to look at various books on the subject. I have John Gierach book Bamboo
a very good read.
Thanks!
