MY STORY
At the beginning of the COVID pandemic in 2020 my grandson came to me and said, "Papa, I've been watching YouTube videos on how to fish for trout." So it began. Little did we know we would find ourselves at the bottom of a rabbit hole today with bamboo rods in our hands.
We endured a long, steep, trial-and-error learning curve before we actually caught some of the little bastards. Many trips to the Driftless coming up skunked before we learned to throw nymphs in the riffles. LOL
So now we’ve netted our share of brownies, brookies and bows in the Driftless and in Colorado. Always on the hunt for new ways to ply our passion.
For me, anyway, the next logical step in this beloved journey was to build our own bamboo rods. Initially I just made tomato stakes but determined naiveté brought a couple fishable sweetgrass rods to fruition.
I have a ton of material resources having got this far down the rabbit hole. Reach out and I'll share what I know.
