Friendship and most of all, sharing, is what makes this web site such sheer happiness. Buying some bamboo (arundiaria amabilis), special bamboo that comes from a certain region of China, and then started making one. Thanks to Francis and Gillum\u2019s web site, I quickly made my first rod, an Alcibiade and it was the beginning of the end.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-32664\" title=\"saumon-russe-ok-\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lemouching.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/saumon-russe-ok-.jpg?resize=319%2C480&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"319\" height=\"480\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The region of Ardeche where I live is a great playground for these jewels called Split cane bamboo rods. I use rods ranging from under 6ft up to 7 1\/2ft even 8ft. Adding a little natural silk fly line and it\u2019s beyond sheer happiness.<\/p>\n<p>Only small rods? Nope all is possible with bamboo. For some of my travels I made more specific rods like a 12 ft, 4-piece rod for salmon and sea trout and two 8ft 6 weight rods for New Zealand\u2019s small trout.<\/p>\n<p>By the way, I\u2019ve come to figure the power exerted by the bamboo on the fish. Incomparable with carbon! The fish are put a bay buy the pressure of the fibers, which exert an equivalent of the fish\u2019s power. In Russia I hardly ever saw the backing of the line with these bamboo rods, where as with carbon it was systematic. And to finish, there is the beauty of the object.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-32675\" title=\"anneau-agate-ok-\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lemouching.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/anneau-agate-ok-.jpg?resize=787%2C666&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"787\" height=\"666\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Nodeless rods, flamed or blond, incrustations, reel seats made of precious woods.
