Traditional fly fishing rods were manufactured using split cane but technology has evolved to more modern materials, particularly carbon fibre and graphite. Choosing a fly fishing rod depends on your budget, the type of fish you aim to catch, the weight of fly line you are using and your desired action to match your fly casting style.
