Bought a New Rod
I've mentioned a 6 1/2' 3wt bamboo rod was being made for me. It will be done in June. (hopefully) I'll show it when it's done.
Meanwhile, I needed a rod for bigger waters that I like to fish. Like the Frying Pan and Taylor. Plus, I live on the Arkansas River. I usually fish creeks in the morning, and hit the Arkansas in the evening.
So, I was looking for an 8 1/2' 6wt. I found a maker who hasn't made a name for himself yet, but does beautiful work, and his rods cast nice. In time i'd never be able to afford his rods, but I can now so I got one at a bargain. It's based on a Powell B taper hollowbuilt which should be a smooth caster. I should get it this week, but here's a couple of pictures he sent me.
