Book Description
Inspired by the teachings of a master rodmaker, here is a step-by-step guide to the craft of building handmade, heirloom-quality bamboo fly-rodsthe most coveted of all rods.
Spurred in part by a quest for something authentic in a mostly synthetic world, more and more anglers are abandoning high-tech graphite fly-rods in favor of those hand-crafted from bamboo. Fly-anglers, most of whom tie their own flies, are now looking to make their own split-cane fly-rods. Bamboo is cheap, and the tools needed to build finished rods are simple and few. What is needed is patience, a steady hand, and a book that explains the process with clarity and detail. This is that book.
Co-author George Maurer has built some of the finest and most innovative bamboo rods seen in a generation. His student Bernard Elser explains this exacting craft in simple, precise steps. Each chapter begins with a list of tools and the time needed to complete the step described. 95 photographs and illustrations throughout illuminate key points of the process.

Fundamentals of Building a Bamboo Fly-Rod.......2006-11-05
A very concise, easy to follow, step-by-step presentation on how to build a bamboo fly rod for the beginner or novice. It should also be of value to those who are interested in either restoring or refurbishing a vintage rod, as this type of work requires a fundamental knowledge of how these rods were built. This book provides that knowledge.
Good book for those new to bamboo rod construction........2005-08-02
Good book for those new to bamboo rod construction as I am, with practical step-by-step explainations, recommendations and tips. Good book for the book shelf but its going to spend a fair bit of its time on the workbench in the shed.
comprehensive and well done...........2000-11-12
This is a truly excellent book on building a bamboo fly rod, and it is possibly the best currently available. The instructions are precise, the photos and drawings are detailed and the author(s) write the book from the standpoint of "We WANT you to suceed.." The truly rank beginnger (me, in other words) will find the list of tools and materials at the beginning of the book a bit daunting, and undoubtbly expensive, but this in a book about building a fine bamboo fly rod, not building a cheap one. A bit more about tapers, (and figuring your own) would have been apprecaited, but all in all, a suberb book for the rod builder, or for those of us who appreicate a bamboo fly rod...
A nearly perfect beginners guide.......2000-03-30
This is an excellent book for those planning to build their first bamboo rod. Each phase of construction is broken down into its essential elements, and the tools and time required to complete the task. The authors make the process much less daunting. I had only two criticisms. After reading the chapter on planing I had a few unanswered questions, and I wish there was more information on choosing appropriate hardware. These points are minor. If you want to build a bamboo rod, this is the first book to read, and the only book that many beginners will need.

Customer Reviews:
THE BEST!! .......2007-08-09
WOW. This is an awesome program and an awesome deal.
If you are like me, tired of wasting money on dictionaries, grammar books, travel guides, contrived music programs....
You will not regret buying this. Not only is it inexpensive, and usable for all ages, you will have usable spanish vocabulary immediately.
Practical Phrases For Real Life .......2007-05-12
I'm using this book to help expose my son to Spanish at a young age. It's full of very useful phrases that you just don't learn in Spanish class in high school or college. I have not listened to the cd much, but hope to get more use of it down the road. I would recommend this book for anyone wanting to learn common phrases that you really can use with your children. It's probably best for someone who has had a few years of Spanish study.
Not for beginners or young children.......2007-04-07
It's touted as the fun way to get kids started, but it's a book on tape without even signals after each page. The dialogue was too fast and there's no explanation or instruction, just spanish dialogue printed next to English translation. If your child isn't a fluent reader, forget it.
It'd be good for an older child or adult already learning Spanish who wanted to work on pronunication.
For the daily caregiver.......2007-02-06
This is an excellent tool but it is not the most useful if you are NOT the basic caregiver of the student. It is set up to wake the child, wash him, have breakfast, get dressed, etc. all done with Spanish songs and expressions, as you would do as the parent in English. But as a teacher, you would have to "act out" these scenarios- if you are not the one who oversees his daily activities. I am teaching my grandsons. It was fun for them to pretend they were waking up or dressing to go outside in the hot/cold weather, but it was not frequently repeated (and therefore reinforced) because I am not part of these routines. Accordingly, this is most useful for a parent who wants to introduce Spanish smoothly into a child's daily life, raising them "as if" bilingual.
Not what I expected.......2007-01-31
The "songs" are not really songs. It is more like a book on tape. The students can't sing along. It would be nice to have to read to a child one-on-one, but not for group singing and playing.
