Finalist Q&A: Headwaters Bamboo Rod Company
Headwaters Bamboo Rod Company makes fly fishing outings an adventure by providing classic handcrafted bamboo fly rods.
How did you come up with the idea for your business, and what, or who, is your main source of motivation? What is a unique feature of your business?
If you've ever handled a bamboo fly rod, you'd know. It is a work of artful craftsmanship that begs to be fished, Unfortunately, they typically cost so much that people don't feel comfortable fishing them so they end up as a "trophy" piece, not something to be fished and enjoyed. That's where Headwaters comes in. We provide a bamboo fly rod that is accessible to the average fly fisherman.
What are your thoughts on the connection between small business and the local community?
Small businesses are the backbone of community. We work with Trout Unlimited chapters to enable stream restoration and healthy fisheries.
