Cane fishing rods, I have some and I know others on here also have some.
I know there is a website that as hundred of members who own and use them but I never see anyone apart from Chris Yates on YouTube using them.
Do people buy them just for show and just to be different or are they as they try to make out better than modern materials or is it just nostalgia that makes them better.
Last time I used one of mine for lure fish ( Allcocks Light caster) it was just too soft and bendy when playing a fish and made me realise why I use carbon.
My Peter Stone ledgerstrike I found wasn’t a patch on modern ledger rods.
Some of us grew up using cane but would any of us go back I very much doubt it.
