Casting Bamboo fly rods vs. Graphite fly rods with Oyster Bamboo Fly Rods

- Bill Oyster discusses the differences between casting graphite and transitioning to casting a bamboo fly rod.
“Each year, Oyster introduces hundreds of people to the joys of casting a bamboo fly rod. Even though it may feel awkward at first - especially if you're used to your graphite rod and you've been fishing those types of rods for years- you get a lot of feedback. The bamboo rod will teach you, if you're listening, everything you need to know. Make sure you're casting the rod; don't try to cast your cast because it's not a one-size fits all.”

Bill is such a nice sweet gentleman he attracts butterflies (5:33) like a Disney character. Thanks for the video. Four days late but I still managed to catch a nice redfish with my new rod built in class with the patient guidance of the Oyster crew.
Thank you @muttwinstead6422 That was a beautiful Redfish on your new bamboo rod! We enjoyed your time with us, see you again soon!
What a great tutorial/instructional video!
Thank you for the great explanation! Your casts are beautiful 👏🏻 well done
Great tutorial, Bill! Dazzling the butterfly to land on your hat at 03:50 was a nice touch!
@gholzworth Glad you enjoyed it.
That was actually very helpful and well said. Thanks Bill!
Thank you for the kind words, we are glad it to hear it helped. @3holer01
Yes, thanks, I think a similar assessment can be made with fiberglass rods as well. I have fished with both graphite and fiberglass for years, and find that the adjustments I have to make when picking up a bamboo rod, is fairly minimal. I also have a bias towards moderate action with the graphite rods I do own, so perhaps that’s partially why. The other consideration is rod length, because I always thought the sweet spot with bamboo are the 7 ft and 7:1/2 ft. lengths, these now being most popular which does require some adjustment from casting graphite anyways.
@@barry4fish You’re very welcome and thanks for the great input. I would agree with the similarities when casting between fiberglass and bamboo. The rod I used in the video was 8’8” in length, but a one piece hollow built rod and extremely light by bamboo standards. In the typical solid build version, I also enjoy the shorter rods and prefer to keep the length at 8’ or less even on our large saltwater rods. Regards!
Very nice video! I find your remarks very similar with how I will describe the casting stroke needed for a fiber glass rod
For sure. The same principles apply.
great video thank you
Thank you!
If he were fishing in Colorado…. He’d be a Rocky Mountain Oyster 😂😂😂😂
excellent presentation!!!
@davidphillips3778 Thank you. We are glad you enjoyed it.
Great video.
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it. Thank you for taking time to watch.
Take me a minute to adjust my casting when I go from my graphite to my fiberglass.
For sure, the same adjustments would apply.
I saw in one of the other comments that the rod in this video is 8’8”, but what line weight it is?
7wt
