Geezerdom
As one who is sliding into the early years of geezerdom, let me assure you that the answer is yes and no. I like bamboo because it casts like I do. The only graphite rod that I really like is a first generation Lamiglass blank. It is slower than anything made today -- I think. And there a certainly other cranks and crackpots like me, out there.
And then there is the guy who has always had to have the newest and latest all along. And nothing wrong with that. But this guy has evolved along with the fly rods. Every change was relatively small and easily adapted to, even exploited. Lots of those folks out there too.
So -- yes and no.
