Gifted an unopened McKenzie 5wt bamboo/cane specific fly line. Any recommendations for how to find a budget/entry bamboo rod to see if this is something I’d like?

You can find some old Granger and heddon rods. I’ve got an old granger aristocratic I run that exact line on actually. Also that line is fantastic on graphite rods too it fishes really well for most trout stuff and roll casts really well
