I've never been much of a fly fisherman but do fish that way on rare occasions. I haven't been able to for quite a few years since my rods were/are in need of restoration.
I have two bamboo rods, and they belonged to both my Grandfathers. They are quite old.
I just finished getting one of them back to usable condition and might have to give it a go this summer.
I know there are much better rods with new high tech materials out there, but I do enjoy using the old stuff.
Thought some of you may enjoy a photo of a vintage bamboo rod.
