Fly Rods, Bamboo & Linen

Flax (Linen) Fly Rods


My research in natural fibers has led me to do some work with Flax fiber. Flax is such a great material for clothing and its use in so many other areas is exploding especially in Europe. I am seeing flax used in  many applications the creative uses are limited only by imagination.

Seeing Flax being used in sporting equipment and seeing Gary Loomis' newest EDGE rod En.V: Most eco-friendly, performance, fly rod project on Kickstarter and seeing fly rods being used on linen web sites in Europe I could not resist combining Flax (linen) with Bamboo  and making some fly rods.
  As I make and try different combinations of rods using Flax I will post the results on the blog.
