If I can get the tapers I will build the little creatures. They must be parabolic and interesting to cast. I am building a 5' 3wt Quad out of Madake Bamboo right now. The cane is from Japan and is a little slower than Tonkin. That being said, the power fibers are close knit like Tonkin. It gives me interesting ideas. Maybe a 5' 6" Madake Penta 000. The color of the cane is naturally a little green when dry unlike Tonkin that turns straw colored. My head is spinning.
Isn't there a Japanese fellow making cane rods out of indigenous Japanese cane? I thought I seen something like that before on the net. Sounds very interesting to me.
