Bamboo Rods

Gentlemen, I recently saw an add on e-bay from someone in China who is selling brand new bamboo rods. I am amazed since his finished cost is less than my cost for materials to build a comparable rod. So, since I believe in the 'boo' I'd say maybe you might want to look at these rods if you want inex..

Glass flyrod

Years ago when I first started to flyfish my first rod was a 7 wt Shakespear wonder rod. Then I bought a fenwick. Then moved on to graphite and boron. I bought a 3wt 6"8" glass rod last year.

Straightening Heavy Leaders

I have a couple of 7 weight fly lines for Bass bugs and such. The line tips measure 0.041". Going by the old 2/3 diameter rule for butt diameter, I'd try a butt of about 0.027" in tying leaders. My question is, how to get the coils out of such heavy butt? I've seen much about rubbing and stretching ..

https://youtu.be/mxDTelpUNcM This is a cool net I did recently for a fella named James. He wanted me to draw his dog onto a stabilized burl net.

Scientific Anglers Mastery Great Lakes Skagit Line

Does anyone have any experience with this line? How does it perform as an indicator line for nymphing with a skagit rod, and can it also be used to swing flies. It has a really only head (50' including the rear taper), which may indicate that it is not designed to swing flies, especially with a sink..

Fiberglass rods

Have you tried any fiberglass rods? Does the slow full flex action help in learning how to cast before getting some of the higher end graphite rods that seem to mostly be a fast action?..
