With Grayrock just concluding; it seemed appropriate to sit down with one of the rod makers. This week, we’re joined by Ron Barch. Ron is the former editor/publisher of The Planing Form, an international newsletter for split bamboo rod enthusiasts. Ron also conducts rod making schools and seminars and has successfully instructed dozens of anglers and craftsmen in the art of split cane rod making.
He was instrumental in establishing the first Rod Makers School at the Catskills Fly Fishing Center in Livingston Manor, New York. His list of credits include: skilled woodworker, rod maker, angler, author, publisher, and dedicated environmentalist.
Ron and his wife, Carole, live in Hastings, MI. When he is not in the shop or at his desk, he chases trout and grouse and sometimes his grand kids. You may also check out Ron’s website at aldercreekangling.com
