Question:
Do you folks ever use bamboo flyrods?
Answer:
Hi,
This is Mike. I would like to thank you for the inquiry into bamboo rod use. We do use bamboo from time to time for trout and grayling. There are a few anglers that are even chasing salmon and steelhead with them. We carried some rods in the shop that were beautiful and a true pleasure to fish with. We only moved a few over a couple of years so we made the hard decision to stop carrying them. People loved them, but we couldn’t get them to commit to a sale. It’s a bummer.
Are you looking to fish bamboo up here, or are you looking for retailers? If you are looking to fish, let me know and I can help you with some insight. If you’re looking for retail, I am sorry to say that we’re probably not a good fit.
Kindest regards,
Mike Cole
