Restoring an older bamboo rod so I purchased a couple nickel silver ferrule sets from Anglers Roost. Beautiful. Marvelous. Perfect fit. No lapping or fitting required. I am very impressed.
I know Johnnie doesn't have a website but he does have a store on @#$%& JKs Anglers Roost. Or call at 716-565-9838. Quality is very much alive in these ferrules. These are the best I have seen in forty years. Re: Fantastic Ferrules!

Barry -
I've been doing business with Johnny for a few years and each year he keeps improving on the quality of parts he sells. I absolutely agree the ferrules he has (based on the Super Z style). You should also ask him about the 24k gold plated reel seats he has - simply beautiful - and the flamed bamboo blanks are amazing. A long, long way from the original blanks he was selling.

I spoke with Johnny a couple of days ago. He told me that he is planning an "all out" attendance at the 2010 Expo. Anyone interested in bamboo - new or restoration as well as fly-fishing related items has to make an effort to stop by and see him there. I think if you were to post him an email he would be willing to bring specific items with him. If you haven't noticed he is also offering a discount if you tell him you are a member / participant on this site. Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
