the making of a Bamboo fly rod
#9
ALL my glass rods are pretty. They gotta be, they are all I can afford so I hafta love em'.[sly]

There was a guy near Seattle (Glen Danielson) who had a cottage industry going with some of the Oriental gals.
They tied flies for him. He had some "Danielson Dandy's" etc.
I remember buying some of his dry flies and using them for Trout on my Bait casting reel and split shot. I cant remember catching anything while fishing like that though.

But...he had some of those gal's making Boo's. I had one of them too.
It came in a little wood box with an extra tip.
I have no idea what the quality was like, that was too long ago.

For you who will pay that much for a Boo, I have a good deal for you.
We have Cane forests here. I'll send you a nice Cane pole for a lot less than $500. Of course guides and a reel seat will be a little extra.
I'll even write on it: "Hand made in Hurricane territory"
