Re: Old tackle......
Frank, I'd love to see photos of your grandfather's bamboo rod.
I have an old bamboo rod, but do not know any history on it. It's in a wooden box, very fragile.
I'd like to learn how to make a bamboo rod.
My wife usually finds a place to display the things I bring home. She likes it as much as I do. My favorites are probably an old leather fly wallet with flannel to hold the flies and an old handmade wooden fly box filled with old snelled leader flies. I'd love to hear the stories that go with all those flies.
