Boyd Rod Company, Harry Boyd, Jr. - Hand Built Bamboo Flyrods Heat treating fixtures and Ovens No one ever said it better than Norman Maclean, "In our family, there was no clear line between religion and flyfishing." For me, that is certainly true. I am a former minister who builds bamboo rods and fishes with them. Handcrafting fine bamboo fly rods one at a time in my small garage workshop is more than a hobby, more than a labor of love-- it is almost a spiritual experience. Of his visits to and inquiries with dozens of rodbuilders Martin J. Keane wrote that it was not just fine bamboo, accurate equipment, or even great skill with varnish, glue, plane, or lathe. No, "It is the man, the rodcraftsman, who makes the rod."
