Default Bamboo Fly Rod

If you’ve ever wanted to own a top quality bamboo fly rod the Northern Lights Chapter of Trout Unlimited Canada is raffling one off. It’s a 7’6″ 3/4 weight cane rod with two tips, built on a Payne 98 taper, retails at $1350, built and donated by AO member and internationally known rod maker, Don Andersen, http://bamboorods.ca/ to help support the Chapter projects for this year:
• temperature logging, installation of trail cameras and videography in the upper Pembina River to help with the reestablishment of a viable Arctic Grayling population;
• assisting ACA with aerating and re-establishing Hasse Lake in Parkland County as a trout fishery;
• riparian protection with angler access points along 6km of Dogpound Creek, a popular brown trout fishery near Cremona;
• replacing damaged educational and Alberta Angler Walk of Fame signage at Muir Lake, and
• continuing public fishing education and kids fly tying sessions at schools, youth groups, Uncles at Large etc. as soon as health regulations permit.
Tickets are $5 each, or 5 for $20 and can be purchased online at https://northern-lights-tuc.square.s...-rod-raffl…/8… . Northern Lights will mail the tickets to you. AGLC Raffle license: #513791.

Interesting raffle. I can't believe how much Cane rods have gone up in value. I have three real old timers that were expensive back in the day but no where near what these new ones are going for. Best of luck with the raffle.
