Fly Fishing Vintage, First Time On Bamboo - Wooly Bugged

[@RoslynPatterson-l3f]

The sound of the stream flowing over the rocks is all the music needed. Great video!

[@3holer01]

Mike, I’m really glad I found your channel. I really love what you do and how you do it. Well done!

[@tronkleds1209]

Love your woods and creeks boys. I use a old 1940s bamboo Winston up here in montana picked it up at a garage sale for 5 bucks and rebuilt it best rod I have in my inventory. Thumbs up on video

[@gt_outdoorexcursions]

People who put thumbs down should be ashamed! That's some amazing water and action!

[@chrisgilluley2545]

Great video! It gives me hope for those little pools in the tiny streams we have up here in Central New York.

[@kennethbiebighauser7984]

No music makes this a superb video......thanks

[@robertbennett6180]

Very nice video, thanks. One of my bamboo rods I use and like a lot is an Orvis Battenkill 7.5’ (1972 rod, I use a wf 5 line with). It’s a full flex rod. Good luck.

[@Grouse2275]

I also enjoy fishing for brook trout in small mountain streams. As much as I love dry flies, nymphs seem to always take larger fish. I always use a crayfish imitation in bigger pools or anywhere I feel a large brook trout might be. Brookies love crayfish!! Awesome video as always!!!

[@WoolyBugged]

Craig C that’s good insight on the crayfish, wouldn’t have considered them.

[@Grouse2275]

When I was younger and kept trout, I always found crayfish in brook trout.....if they were over 9 inches it was essentially 100%........

[@dougperrett332]

Hi Mike...another great video presentation. I love what you're doing. You tossed out the question about lighter, better performing bamboo rods. There are some lower cost, better performing bamboo rods available but, bamboo, by it's composition, is typically heavier than glass and graphite. Based on what I've read, Winther and Stoner (Winston), to remove weight, started creating hollow center six strip bamboo rods in the 1930s. Bamboo, by the nature of the fiber, has always been heavy and limited in the line sizes that match rods built with it. Glass rods, although lighter, have some of the same line limitations. This may be why graphite fiber rods stole the show in the 1970s and are still the choice for versatility and performance. That said, I think we owe a debt of gratitude to Samuel Phillipe of Easton PA, who is credited with developing the six strip bamboo rod in 1848. As Keystoners, we have a rich heritage of fly fishers. You continue that tradition.

[@WoolyBugged]

Doug Perrett this is extremely helpful information Doug, thank you for sharing!

[@danhewko1093]

Another nice outing! For more info on bamboo rods and rods for sale check out "The Classic Fly Rod Forum" and you may want to pick up or check out John Gierach's Fishing Bamboo from the library or buy online. It's a short read but has a lot of good information from a fisherman's perspective. There are very good rods available for $400-500 for new from lesser known rod makers or used ones. I have read that you should stay away from eBay in purchasing bamboo rods unless you know something about the rods. A lot of people passing off junk that are not very fishable. You really take your chances. That being said I picked up a like new used 7.5ft.5/6wt. made by Bill Critchfield on eBay but I did some research on the Forum about him and his rods before taking the plunge. Got it for a little over $400 but his new rods run $800-900. It is my only bamboo rod, the rest are fiberglass. From the research I did from the forum and bamboo rod dealers(listed by the forum and in Gierach's book) you should expect to pay around $400 for a good rod. Happy hunting!

[@WoolyBugged]

Dan Hewko very helpful Dan, I will look into the forum.

[@mctree6145]

your bringing back good memories for me, back in 1979 i went to college in williamsport ,i fished on the weekends; trout run ,rock run,loyalsock creek and others. awesome filming and editing ;very interesting and hope you keep it up.

[@WoolyBugged]

MCTREE 61 that’s great, that area of the state holds a lot of memories for me too.

[@dougperrett332]

Just had to add one more comment about vintage flies. I recently ran across the elk hair caddis, developed by PA fly tier Al Troth in 1957. That was 62 years ago and it is still a popular pattern. That’s longevity. The Henryville Special is another PA caddis pattern developed in the 1930s. They’re both good looking patterns. It would be fun to see PA Brookies eat them.

[@flyfish6473]

Checkout Headwaters Bamboo, they're becoming more popular and are reasonably priced. I've never fished one, but they look nice for the money. I'm getting back into glass, had a blast with a 6.5' Cabela's CGR (~$70) over the 4th on some small northern MI streams.

[@WoolyBugged]

B Dickinson ahh those lost fish! Every time I miss one it’s exciting and frustrating!

[@jimangela4589]

Just a suggestion. When fishing Pennsylvania small freestone streams for brookies, smash your barbs. You can't keep anything under 7" anyway and barbs can really tear up small mouths. And you really can ditch the net.

[@Michael65429]

His net is huge and the chest waders? Hahahaha 😆

[@scotthill9648]

The student becomes the master 😎. You might try Tenkara with one fly next time. Absolutely a blast. Nice vid 🙏🏻

[@TroutSoup1]

Hey Mike, great footage out east there. Didn’t know if someone had already commented on this, but since you were only using that rod within a VERY close distance, you might try using it again when you can get at least 30 feet (maybe more like 50 feet) of line out. Don’t know if you’re using DT or WF but that first 30 feet is the same on either. May be the reason why the rod didn’t seem very flexible. My Dad and his father both fished bamboo (as well as my mother when I was young), and fixed and wrapped bamboo rods; they all fish very pure - slower action, full flex throughout - but noticeably different under 20-30 ft of line out.

[@YoutubeTM432]

great video, I like seeing your dry fly action mike because you do so well with the camera setup. Really gives you a feel for where you're casting and adjusting to each time and where you're getting hookups in a given hole.. awesome!

[@WoolyBugged]

T M thank you for the kind comment!

[@dougperrett332]

Just a thought...there are vintage flies like the Henryville Special, developed in Henryville PA for fishing the Broadhead. It might be cool to see a video with you using vintage ties.

[@WoolyBugged]

Doug Perrett that’s a great idea, I’m going to do some research on that and consider it!

[@farmerbob4554]

Doug Perrett Cool idea. The flies I remember from the 1950’s were Hendrickson, Light Cahill, Quill Gordon and Royal Coachman. I don’t think anyone fished subsurface back then except for swinging wet flies of the same names.

[@ericbaird1341]

@@WoolyBugged a great resource for "historical" flies is local Pocono tyer Scott Cesari's "Pocono Patterns" page www.scottcesariflytying.com/pocono-patterns/. The Swiftwater pattern he describes there is a proven fly on our Pocono streams (a friend decided he needed to prove it after he found out about) in a size 14.

[@jamiestewart4087]

That looks like the perfect place try a tenkara rod. You're basically using the same technique. Nice spot! I have a tube of my great-grandfathers old bamboo rods and you've inspired me to break one out and use it sometime. Thanks!

[@Michael65429]

If you use the same technique, you don't need to waste your money on tenkara. I've been fishing this method for years and never felt the need to switch. Just my opinion...

[@jared5862]

Hey Mike, I love fishing vintage bamboo. I just finished refurbishing one this spring that I saved from the trash 25 years ago as a kid. It was in a flood and was physically coming apart at the seams. I’ve had it out a few times this year and only caught 4 trout on it so far, but each one is special in a way I can’t describe. I was actually planning to film a native brook video with it this weekend if the weather works out so I was really excited to see your video this morning. As far as quality affordable vintage fly rods go so far my favorite is a Horrocks & Ibbotson. I have a Wright& McGill that I really like as well. The H & I can be found fairly easy and for around $100 on eBay. The Wright & McGill will run $300-$400. Hope to see more from you soon. By the way do you ever come over to WV and film?

[@WoolyBugged]

Jared this is all really helpful information. Thank you for sharing some rod names. On rare occasion I make it down to WV to see some friends. I love it down there. Hopefully I can make it down in the early fall.

[@johnbrundage6867]

Now we like to use a 4 wt rod for brookies, graphite allows us to do that. Back before glass and graphite, in the age of bamboo, the most common line weight was a 6. Your best bet is to look for a "production" rod made by one of the big tackle makers from the 1940-50's; firms like Heddon, South Bend, Montague, & Horrocks Ibbotson. These can be had for less than 300 bucks, often much less. in general, shorter bamboo rods are more expensive than longer ones. So a 7.5 footer will fetch more than a 9 footer of the same make, all things being equal. I would highly recommend that you look on-line for a South Bend model 290, which is a 7.5 footer designed to handle either a 5 or 6 wt. Best wishes and thanks for another great video.

[@WoolyBugged]

John Brundage this is great feedback John, exactly the info I was looking for.

[@johnbrundage6867]

@@WoolyBugged You're welcome. Another viable option is to look for a model called the "Tonka Prince," a bamboo rod once made by the Horrocks Ibbotson Co. of Utica NY. Tonka Prince is a 7 foot 2 piece rod which takes a DT5 line. Another HI rod was the "Tonka Queen," a 7'9" 2-piecer also for a 5 weight line. Both of these rods are generally well regarded by those who fish old-timey, blue collar bamboo rods. Along with the SB 290, these two HI rods are ideal for small stream fishing. Best of all, they can be had for less than $200.

It never ceases to amaze me the large size flies these Eastern Brookies will attack. Here in the West we’re fishing size 18 and smaller for native trout. On a few remote streams they’ll hit larger flies but not many! I’ll be in the Sierras next week and have stocked up on pheasant tail and prince nymphs in #18-22 and dry fly midges in #22-24. I thought things were supposed to be bigger out West!

I picked up the same rod recently on eBay. I couldn't find much information online either, I actually thought it was a smaller maker out east when I bought it. After receiving the rod I questioned that assumption because of the script decal. I finally casted it today and it handled a 5wt line nicely, I'm not a bamboo expert but I wouldn't call it stiff at all for what I was doing. I think you just had way too much rod for your stream.

[@ianjones6910]

The post war Japan occupation bamboo fly rods were made for export. Many returning service members bought them when returning home. Generally the post war Japan rods were of poor quality and design. The rods are typically very heavy and stiff. The quality of the hardware was of lesser quality and the adhesives were sub par. IMHO these rods have absolutely no comparison to rods made by the bamboo master makers of yesteryear or with modern makers of today. Bamboo rods of today are made with better adhesives, lighter hardware and much better tapers. I think you'll see once you get your hands on a well made bamboo rod. Comparing the two I think you'll agree that the post war Japan rod deserves a spot hanging on a wall as a decoration while the other needs to be fished.

Not large, but plentiful. Typically streams of this size don't have a lot of food for trout. You might run across a lunker.
