Bamboo fly fishing rod custom made by Chris Clemes fly rod makers

"Hello Chris, at last my patience has paid off and the rod has been presented to me today. First impression are , Wow, as a fishing rod I am yet to discover , but some objects have a life of their own that extends beyond it main purpose, this defines the first thoughts on looking at the whole outfit. You and your team should be very proud of what you have achieved.

I am extremely pleased with being the very proud owner of a masterpiece in cane.

As previously mentioned I will contact you soon re the other rod."

Mr David Wienand
