I am considering buying a cane rod for my son who fishes for trout up on the South Platte in CO. One maker here in the state is D. G. Schroeder. Does anyone have any knowledge/experience with him and his rods? I would very much appreciate any comments.

schroeder is considered one of the top 5 or 6 cane rodmakers in the country by many. what distingushes the top 5 from the next 5 i don’t know but his name comes up frequently. read about him in ed engle’s book on contemporary cane rod builders. i believe he favors payne tapers, which you can’t go wrong with!
