An American maker supplies a rod of " twisted bamboo " which he claims equalizes the strain and produces better action. I have never tried a rod of this type so am unable to pass on its merits, but Perry Frazer, in his " Amateur Rodmaking," speaks well of it. British and American Rods Compared As a general rule British rods are heavier and longer than those used in this country although the American light rod idea is becoming popular in England and British rod makers have been forced to cater to this demand both at home and abroad. The average British angler, however, clings to his 12 and 14 foot rods because of his inborn conservatism. |
