Common questions
More answers at our full FAQ page.
When will my rod ship?
Most models ship from stock within 1–3 business days. If a model is on backorder, we typically ship within 2–4 weeks.
How does bamboo fish compared to graphite?
Bamboo loads differently. It flexes into the cast rather than snapping through it. Most graphite anglers notice the difference within a few casts: slower tempo, better feel at short distances, more feedback on the drift. It's not harder to cast. It's different — and most people don't go back.
What if it's not for me?
Fish it for 30 days. Cast it, take it on the water, really use it. If it's not the right fit, contact us for a free return label. No restocking fee.
Do you need to replace your tip? Please send the ENTIRE rod back so that we can match the ferrule fit. We will replace with a new tip section or an entirely new rod.
The return address is: Headwaters Bamboo, 455 E 900 N #1, Logan, UT 84321
