This rod rocks. I took the Victory, McKenzie 8′ 6″ 5-Wt 3-pc Medium Action to 11 mile canyon in CO for some tailwater trout and let me tell you it did not let me down. 14 fish total 1 @ 18 inches caught on a #20 bwo. This rod dropped

I bought the Mckenzie river 8′ 6″ 3pc 2tip 5wt fly rod several weeks back when it was on sale. My description of this rod can be made in one word, “awesome”! Other cane rod companies charge thousands for a rod of quality such as this. My friend & I

What a great rod! I was a bamboo novice (someone told me it would be easier on a sore arm). David walked me through the options on his chat line and answered in detail my skepticism at being able to purchase a high-quality bamboo fly rod at a fraction of

I recently bought the Deschutes with the larger St. Joe reel. It is pretty much a twin of the rod my grandfather let me use when he taught me fly fishing nearly 60 years ago. I know what to look for and this combination is first class. Guides are perfectly

I received one from my wife as an anniversary present about 7 years ago. A 6′ 6″ Dickerson taper. I won’t forget all the fish that I’ve caught with the grass instead of fiberglass or graphite since then. The Headwaters rod made bamboo affordable for me and got me started

I absolutely love my Deluxe 7’6″ Rogue Medium Fast action rod in a 5wt. I always wanted to fish a bamboo rod but never wanted to fork over big dough in order to do it. I paired it with an Orvis C.F.O. III carrying an Orvis Hydros Dual Taper Trout

If you haven’t tried one yet, what are you waiting for? I’m not a bit sorry I got one. Fishes like a dream & reminds me of one I had in the late 50s.

I own two Deluxe Headwaters bamboo rods, a 4 wt. purchased in 2010 and a 5 wt. purchased in 2015. Both have performed extremely well and are a joy to cast, especially when roll casting. I have fished both rods extensively on many Michigan trout streams and they have held

I just purchased a Headwaters Metolius fly rod, it’s a very elegant looking bamboo rod, the guides, ferrules, reel seat all appear to be quality, tried for the first time last night, what a beautiful casting dry fly rod, I’m using a DT5F line and a 12′ leader, real good

I purchased my Headwaters Bamboo Deluxe Rogue 7’6″ 5 Wt. medium fast action last year. The company, in particular, David Rogers, was easy to work with and assisted me in making my decision about the rod. He suggested that I get a medium fast rod since I had never fished

I recently purchased a Deschutes 8′ 5-wt bamboo blank from Headwaters. I am in the process of building that rod and have been very happy with the blank and the service I have received from David. The attached ferrules and bamboo are of a quality you would expect on a

I received the Headwaters bamboo rod today am I am very impressed with your service and high quality bamboo rod. I CAN’T WAIT TO FISH IT. All my fishing buddies are impressed and will no doubt be calling you for one of their own. Thank you.

This past weekend I participated in a tournament on the San Juan River via the Texas Hole Charities benefitting the Wounded Warrior Project. Day two we all were handed a box five flies and a bamboo rod, the 7’6″ Field Grade. By the end of the day I was able

The attached picture was taken back in October, it was the first trout I have ever caught on bamboo, with my new Headwaters Favorite Series rod. It truly is a wonderful casting instrument. The fish was caught in Yellow Creek Indiana County, Pennsylvania using a #14 bead head prince nymph.

I purchased the Metolius a few years ago planning to use it when I retired. Last year I began to use it but it broke at the bottom ferrule. Headwaters responded quickly and it was repaired with minimum cost and expeditiously. I used it for a couple of trips last

Last winter (2013-2014) was so bad in Illinois, I rewarded myself with a Headwaters Rogue Deluxe 7’6″, medium fast 5wt, bamboo fly rod. 3 days after ordering there was a bamboo rod on my doorstep. As soon as the weather broke I discovered that there were fish in my bamboo

I thought you might enjoy seeing the results of our Senior guides trip to Kelly Creek last week. The weather was great, and so was the fishing! My new Santiam FAR exceeded my expectations, and was responsible for the fish of the trip, a 19-inch cutt on a hopper. Fishing

I have had my Santiam 7′ Med action for about four years. It has proven to be quite the value and a real “pride” to own. Over the years, I have spoofed many of my Fly Fishing buddies by convincing them I own a beautiful $2,000 classic Bamboo Fly Rod.
