Cane cast & compare 10/17/20


Recommended Posts

To those of you who came to the September cast and compare on the fox river at Glenwood Park know what a success it was. So I decided to try the cane rod makers outing on Saturday morning October 17 - 8:00am until noon. That is Glenwood Park mile and a half south of the town of Batavia on route 25. Masks, gloves, and any other safety attire you would like as welcome.

Glenwood Forest preserve

Batavia, Il. 60510

Come join us at Glenwood Forest Preserve on Sunday 4/28 as Jeff Fox , Illinois Bamboo Rod Builders hosts area bamboo builders & collectors for a day of testing, comparing & learning about bamboo fly rods. Come out & bring your bamboo to share. Other rods OK, I always have a couple glass rods to compare. This is a make up of the missed May 2020 event. Masks & social distancing requested. All outside event - hope to see you there.

A cool & at times wet morning. Seven enjoyed the time casting, twice that many  custom bamboo rods in the rack. We had three deer graze the lawn for awhile across from the pavilion & pass back through later. Thanks to Jeff Fox for organizing & Bruce Olson for help setting up. Gordon Koppin brought out his tri-hex 6 weight rod a rare build with great action. This is likely the last activity for some time as the Early show is cancelled until a less covid time.
