“The bamboo rod will teach you, if you’re listening, everything you need to know.”
Bill Oyster discusses the differences between casting graphite and transitioning to casting a bamboo fly rod.
“Each year, Oyster introduces hundreds of people to the joys of casting a bamboo fly rod. Even though it may feel awkward at first - especially if you’re used to your graphite rod and you’ve been fishing those types of rods for years- you get a lot of feedback. The bamboo rod will teach you, if you’re listening, everything you need to know. Make sure you’re casting the rod; don’t try to cast your cast because it’s not a one-size fits all.”
