Love this show, craftsmanship is just such an awesome thing to celebrate.
This honestly might be my new favorite TH-cam channel. Great work Eric, and thank you for such fantastic content.
Wow! Thank you!
It’s always such a pleasure to be a part of your adventures Eric, the people you meet, and the beautiful things they create, thank you so much buddy..for sharing your world… if ever you’d like a new friend, you’ve got one in a heartbeat.😊✌🏻❤️🩹🍃
Thank you Dennis! You can never have too many friends in life.
Loved that show. As a child of 10 or 12 I used a 10' bamboo fly rod. Ive now collected 20 bamboo boat rods for their beauty.
This show should be on network tv, very well done.
Check public tv in your area. That's how I first saw this
@@davidhansen8196 Will do Thanks
I HAVE BEEN A FLY FISHERMAN IN THE WESTERN US FOR OVER 50 YEARS, AND I LOVED THIS VIDEO!
I really enjoy Eric’s ability to become a student, without any wise-ass “I know how to do this part,” comments. He fulfills the eager student role, in substitution for us viewers, who actually don’t know what we’re doing. Well done video production. Totally informative and enjoyable. Thanks.
Very kind to say, Thank you. I'm glad you enjoy the series.
sorry to be so off topic but does anyone know a trick to log back into an instagram account..?
I was stupid forgot the account password. I would love any help you can offer me!
@Charlie Jimmy Instablaster :)
@Kylen Cannon Thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site thru google and I'm waiting for the hacking stuff atm.
Seems to take a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Kylen Cannon it worked and I finally got access to my account again. I am so happy:D
Thank you so much, you saved my ass !
I loved this! Building a bamboo rod had always seemed like rocket science. Thanks for making it understandable.
Glad you liked it!
I love this and all the episodes. When it aired I missed when he mentions camping in the Allegheny National Forrest. That’s where I grew up. What a small world
How cool! Glad you were able to catch it
I have purchased lots of tools, etc, from Jeff and Casimira - absolutely top shelf, wonderful people to work with...
Couldn't agree more!
Watching this video really gave me a education of why certain Fly Rods are so very expensive and how the makers take pride and attention to detail and the finish product speaks for itself, WOW if i owned one i would be afraid to even use it. Peace.
What an honor. Thanks for taking us into their shop. Beautiful work.
Thank you! Amazing place and wonderful people.
OMG that's a lot of work! There are so many steps to screw up, it's amazing any rod gets finished!
Right! I felt the same way.
Pure art and dedication.
Very true!
Amazing how you made this rod in just 25 minutes 😂😂😂.
Quick dry epoxy
🌴 Been refurbishing some antique cane saltwater rods for my own wall hangers and found this channel and showing the process of manufacturing a rod from raw bamboo to a finished rod was great , I do wish it would have shown installing the reel seat and varnishing the rod but I still enjoyed seeing the process , this was an informative video , and what a great couple , thanks for making it 👍🏼
I love your show!!! It used to be on WUCF but they changed their programming. Thank you so much for this! 💗
Glad you enjoy it!
I absolutely love how unpretentious you are in watching someone teach you how to perform the task. Too many others like to put on the act that they know what they're doing and then fu** up and laugh it off like it was an isolated incident. lol
I feel like I am learning with you and your willingness to be the student gets the sub from me. I look forward to your future content.
Nice work! I too am a big fan of classic bamboo fly rods. Great for fishing those intricate streams!
Thank you! They feel very peaceful to me, like natural.
Eco-friendly fishing rod fantastic
Thanks
Very Interesting. FISH ~ ON 🇺🇸
These videos are so high quality, I really like them!
Happy to hear that!
OMG that's a work of ART I love it.
Truly. Thanks!
This is a real find.I knew a gentleman named Peter McVey from Corbett Lake Lodge just outside Merrit ,BC. He was a cane fly rod maker. He had a following of many people around the world who would seek him out to purchase these rods. Looking at these people here in the video all I can think of is " for the love of fishing ". Thanks
Fishing with a cane rod is a special experience. Glad you enjoyed it.
Eric, this video is really well done, man. Stumbled across it... love the vibe.
Awesome, thank you!
Great video. It took me back to the mid 80's when I worked as an apprentice for a winter at the Paul Young Rod Co. under Paul's grandson, Todd. That Tonkin cane is an amazing material.
Very cool!
Thank you very much for uploading. I love the book too!
Thank you!! Very kind to say. I hope you enjoy the shows.
Great work sir..❤
I REALLY ENJOYED this episode. Thanks.🇺🇸😎
Thanks, Eric -- I hadn't seen this episode before, but now, (I think :) I'm gonna build me a fly rod.
Cheers!
You should! Thanks man.
Great vids, thank you, absolutely the very best.

Wow, thank you!
A calming influence. Thank you for posting.
Thank you. I also find it calming.
Great video! Thank you for sharing! I look forward to more!
Thanks for watching!
I have been watching your videos for quite some time but I think this one I like the best. I really appreciate your attitude and willingness to learn new things. Thank you.😎
Thank you, Jim. I appreciate your support!
Great to see the folks I buy snake guides from.
Eric, I stumbled onto your show late one night in So Cal on PBS, and immediately perked up. All I fish with are cane rods, I've done small repairs but no total re-dos or makes; I know what it takes to make one. Wish you had time to show varnishing, then taking the stick out for christening. But no complaints, great show. I wondered what taper did you guys follow? tight lines, Darrell K.
Awesome! Thank you! I don't remember the taper we used. I'll have to check. Cane rods are super fun. Love the feel.
Amazing, have been fishing for years. Time to make rod like this.
One of the best & most interesting video's ive seen . Especially since im looking at putting new guides on an antique bamboo rod at the moment. Thanks for your great content.
What an absolutely beautiful setting to film a wonderful episode! So interesting to watch all the steps involved in crafting that elegant fly rod. What a wonderful life they must have being able to work together each day creating such treasures! Eric, it's almost time for you to take your first fishing trip for 2020! Hope you have an awesome time! So glad you're adding more full episodes of ACL on TH-cam! God bless you and keep you safe and well!!
It is an amazing place for fly fishing! Thank you
Great “segment”. Thanks for an interesting show.
Glad you enjoyed it
So great to see these again! many thanks for all these fine examples of craftsmanship. read the book twice. it is super.
Thank you!
I have so wanted to build my own bamboo fly rod. Thanks for the great video.
Go for it!
Really, amazing...
Thanks.
So nice of you
A great video! I've made about a dozen graphite rods (spinning and fly) in a variety of weights, but I've never made a split bamboo fly rod. I'm envious!
You should make a boo rod! How difficult is it to make a graphite rod? I'd like to try that too.
I ❤️❤️❤️ your channel.. I've learned so much from watching all the different types of things that you've covered and really appreciate how you bring all the different types of almost forgotten trade/crafts and document them for us to witness. Thank you so much for sharing.. I'm learning so much.. hugs from Canada
Thank you!!
That's so great . good tools and intelligence. I watch a lot but have not had the opportunity to own the above tools
Amazing videos
Thank you!
Great video and super talented craftspersons.
Thank you very much!
Excellent episode !! I have two books on the subject ... one autographed by the author ... but not one rod. Still using the fiberglass rod I bought in the early seventies.
Take care Eric !!
You should make one! Great experience and there is a lot of information / sources online for materials.
Thanks again, great show.
How fascinating, I was approached a few years back by a Dr. no joke and asked if I made bamboo flyfishing rods. I said no and he said I should because there is a demand for handmade rods.
Great video Eric, keep them coming.
Thanks! You should try it.
What great teachers
Truly! Thank you for watching
Hermoso reportaje felicitaciones 🍾
Totally captivating, I’m a retired woodshop teacher from Northern California still with ten fingers.
I’m looking to augment my passion for fishing with rod making. Can you supply me with the name of the book Jeff used to get started. Much appreciated.
Very cool! I would suggest reaching out to Jeff directly. He might be able to assist with materials too.

Really enjoyed the video, thanks
Thank you
cool!
Really enjoyed this
Glad you enjoyed it. Thank you
Nothing feels like a split cane rod I still have my wife’s Grand Father’s rod I like using it in areas where I won’t find any monsters so I don’t over stress it. I prefer it over all of my other rods of modern materials. I also have a shorter trolling rod for Salmon fishing here in Oregon.
That's an awesome heirloom for your family!
Hay, this kiwi just found your show, its fantastic😊
Glad you enjoy it! Thank you
Awesome! This is a bucket list build. As a former fly shop owner, guide, rod builder and wood worker I want to put it all together in a A-Z bamboo rod build.... Might have to wait till retirement though! :) Thanks for more great content. Did you catch a trout on it yet???
I did and it is fantastic!
Great vid 👍
Amazing!! and you got another subscriber.
Thank you!!
This is awesome, thanks for sharing , I’m a new subscriber .
As a bamboo rod maker I can say you’re a brave man to split cane without gloves. Bamboo rod makers can honestly say they have Tonkin cane literally in their blood...
Great tip!!
Michael Arnold..what glue do you use? Thanks a lot
@@nikolabahat5789 I use Nyatex which is a two part epoxy. I have a love hate experience with it in all honesty. I love the long work time but it needs to be heat set and once heat set it is VERY resistant to any further heat straightening of the rod.
I was sad you didn't run a full reveal with detail. But I suppose you need to let everyone find out for themselves by way of purchase. And you definitely had me looking them up. I'm also happy that you own the rights to your show. You'll blow up here soon.
I'm glad you enjoyed the episode! Thank you for the comment!
since taking my retirement in 1997 as a pastime I make snowshoes mostly bearpaw and beavertails the traditional way I love working with steam and wood bending I( also do other traditional skills such as making the crooked knives. vincent Lavallee
Awesome! I love the traditional skills.
This guy ask good questions
Thank you.
Definitely American treasure
Absolutely!
Wow !!!!!!!
Well said!
That is a very interesting build. I enjoyed the video. Mr. Gorges, where did you get your little burner that heated the glue for the rod tips? I would love one of those for building arrows.
The video is awesome, thanks a lot Eric, could you tell me what kind of glue can I use to glue the parts up? Can I use the D3 super wood glue?
Hi Nikola, there is much debate over super glues and rod building. I suggest reaching out to Jeff Wagner for his advice.
www.craftsmanslegacy.com/craftsmen/SEASON-3/Casimira-Orlowski-Jeff-Wagner
I knew a guy twenty five years ago, who made cane rods who wanted teach me how to make rods. I hemmed and hawed about getting together, then, he died suddenly. I still kick myself.
You make the best decisions you can at that time. Sorry to hear about your friend passing.
This is one of my favorite shows infact it inspired me to be a craftman artists .so the Hookcaddys was born .but my dream is drying up and sick with a pandemic .🥴 Just sitting here wondering what to do now .
Thanks for the kind words. Keep at it!
Build a cane rod in a day, who woulda thought
Not really. We usually discuss how long it takes to make.

Hello. Just wondering if a rod could be made without using ferrules. It would seem to be more sensitive.
Hi Bryan, Do you mean the breakdown ferrules?
@@CraftsmansLegacy Yes. Could you make a one piece fly rod?
In theory yes. It would be difficult to transport! It would also be more difficult to build
@@CraftsmansLegacy Thanks, and have a great day.
@Imran nawaz Nice. Goid luck!
Do I spy a Pilot Vanishing Point at around minute 3:00? If so, great choice of writing instrument.
You have a great eye! I enjoy writing with fountain pens 🙂
Are these shows still being produced?
Yes. Season 5 just started posting on TH-cam.

Wish you wold have shown strips gluing better.
Thanks for the comment. We always appreciate what our audience would like to see.
“Tried working a 9-5 but it nearly broke me”
Bro come on….it breaks all of us. We do it cause we have to.
One thing better than a patient teacher is a patient and enthusiastic student. Nice vid
Thank you! I love to learn new skills.
@@CraftsmansLegacy Me too. I often say that my hobby is "Hobbies". I pretty much give anything a go. Currently into float making and already looking at taking things to the next level with rods, hence watching your video.
@@mrfister1899 Float making? Can you tell me more?
@@CraftsmansLegacy Making floats for fishing. Some wood turning, whipping and painting. Quite interesting use of natural materials, such as quills, reeds and wood. The more traditional techniques are really interesting. There's a few video tutorials around.
Hello, how do we make bamboo strong
Bamboo is already strong!
@@CraftsmansLegacy but how is that
@@user-dj9yz7wb9e Bamboo is a grass, made of long fibres.
Do they have a website?
They sure do: www.wagnerrods.com
@@CraftsmansLegacy Thanks!
Why making fly rod from few pc and glue it together ..i'm asking what if they make it from one big pc..just make rod more strong or what??
There are many reasons including strength, straightness, stability
