The best concise description of a split bamboo fly rod.

Exploring home waters.

Inspired of reading Mike Valla's book "Tying Catskill-Style Dry Flies" I took the box with some classic dry flies and the P.H.Y. 7'6" 4wt Perfectionist, the old Pflueger Medalist reel loaded with the 4 DT  silk line. And went out for the stream.
Dreaming of the Cattskill's.





 
Just casting with a cane rod and hear the silk line gliding through the guides is pure joy.
Nice colours.
