Home made bamboo
The only man who never makes a mistake, is the man who never does anything!!
The further one goes into the wilderness, the greater the attraction of its lonely freedom.

First choice would be Sage, second would be Redington, who is made by Sage... both excellent choices in one-handed or switch options.

  I personally stay away from bamboo, too much hassle.  I have sage, loomis,  Winston, etc.  ,  but I like echo.  for $200 in a 10 footer you can throw it as far as any other rod.  you can spey cast it also.  if it breaks you are out $200 not $800.  of course they do have warranties.  I also have some tfo's and they are a fine rod.    mike w
