Hello, I was recently fortunate enough to win a bamboo fly rod and a silk line. I know I need to get to Oak Orchard for a new reel, but was wondering if anyone had any advice or suggestions for fishing with and caring for this equipment.
Would appreciate any help out there. Thanks Bill

i'm not sure on the silk line as i've never had one. there should be some care instructions with it or contact the maker for their recommendations. is it by chance a Phoenix line? those are about the only modern ones i have seen recently.
on the rod the main thing is to not put it away wet. everything else is pretty much the same as any rod. they may have an even bigger draw to car doors and rambunctious kids but that's all. cane is pretty tough but the varnish on them is fairly easy to scratch so if you want to keep it in pristine shape they take a little more care than glass or graphite. otherwise take it out and show it a good time, they appreciate it.
