Default Bamboo one piece special.
Hi again as promised a new rod has just left my bench and is on its way to a small stream specialist (board member)

A one-piece dark flamed 3wt with a solid nickel silver sliding band reel seat and a walnut spacer.
Clear wraps with black tippings, H&H snakes.

A real beauty, Gary. I envy the member going out fishing with it. On avarage, how many hours do you work on a rod?

Regards,
Johan

Gary, that looks so cool. What is it like to cast? How long?

Chris.
