This thread makes me wish I could take the time to learn as much the posters about bamboo...for investment reasons. I am a hardcore garage saler, and have passed many a boo rod in my travels. I know enough to look for manufacturers a little bit, but that's all.

This board really helped my out when I found a Tonka Prince at an estate sale for cheap. Then they threw in a Pflueger reel to boot. Wish I woulda had the experience and money to buy the other rods too. The Prince looks good on the wall with the Pflueger on it....maybe one day I will try it out, too.
