About this product

Product Information

The bamboo fly rod still represents the pinnacle of the fly-fishing art; its apparent simplicity and delicacy belie the craftsmanship and strength that are the hallmarks of all great rods. A growing number of people have tried to learn the art of making bamboo rods from a shrinking number of secretive craftsmen. The revised and expanded Handcrafting Bamboo Fly Rods is the definitive reference for beginners and experts alike. Wayne Cattanach begins by explaining the qualities that distinguish bamboo from all other materials: It has a tensile strength akin to steel, yet it is very light.He describes the process that will take anyone from lengths of hard, raw bamboo to a beautiful finished rod with clear, step-by-step instructions and illustrations, including how to find the best supplies; select tools and materials; make heat treaters and binders; cut culms; straighten bamboo strips; plane and stagger strips; bind strips; apply finishes; mount the reel seat, ferrules, and tip-top; and much more. This is surely the most thorough book available for those who wish to make and fish their own bamboo fly rods.

    Cattanach's Book gives beginners good perspective.

    Excellent easy reading and practical information on the subject. Cattanach gives info for the novice not available elsewhere and based on his direct experience, enabling costly mistakes to be avoided. This book is eminently usable for one desiring a good finished first attempt at almost any level of bamboo fly rod work, building, refinish, or restoration. Not a lot of theory but much practical advice clearly explained. Very good discourse on planes & what really works well. Highly recommended.
