Fibreglass the new Bamboo

Anyone else have a interest in them? Some of these new glass rods are gorgeous and cast beautifully. Action is a little like bamboo but rods are lighter and more durable. Graphite is a better all round material but glass has its place with dries and smaller water.



I just picked up a 8'6" 7 weight blank for small - medium bass bugs on small waters. It will be perfect for that.



Forget about cheap. Some sell for $500 - $1000. Old Fenwicks are now selling for $100 plus. The blanks are good but the grips and components cheap. I built myself some Fenwicks back in the late 70's early 80's with good components. Wish I still had them, practically gave them away when graphite cameout.
