Bamboo, the worlds tallest grass, is an important part of the history of fly fishing. Being one of the strongest and lighest natural fibers, bamboo enabled the early master craftsmen like Phillipe and Leonard to produce split cane rods that outperformed any other materials in use at the time. The tradition and skills continue to develop and todays split bamboo rods produced by master builders like St Clair & Hynes yield the unique quality and performance that you can only find in a well crafted cane rod. Most everyone that becomes addicted to the wonderful sport of fly fishing will, someday, seek the feel and grace of Bamboo.
"St Clair & Hynes are the most beautiful hand crafted bamboo fly rods I have ever seen and fished with. I am proud to carry such high quality rods in our shop. Make sure to test cast their 3, 4 and 5 wt and feel the quality. A must cast rod for the dry fly enthusiast."
