[VFB] Rod Building

[Neville Gosling]

I think that I am in the “dated” category as I built my first “coarse fishing” rod out of whole cane as a schoolboy in the 1950’s in Britain. Have since built fiberglass (solid and hollow), split cane and graphite. Even had a go at splitting my own cane. I currently have eleven graphite fly rods to build – from ultra light freshwater to 12 wt saltwater. The problem is lack of time. Can’t wait to quit work & retire.   Neville (Nev) Gosling Greater Vancouver, B.C. Canada
