Default Diamond Willows

Does anyone know of any kind of market for diamond willows. I've been looking for hours and could not find anything except canes and furniture for sale. I'm looking for a buyer.

This may be completely useless, but Nebraskaland ran an article on diamond willows this past year - maybe in the fall. If you could check out their back issues or archives, or contact them and ask them, you might find the info you're looking for. I know there's a lot of info on diamond willows if you Google them. Hope this at least helps a little.

I do remember that article, but can't seem to find that issue at the moment. The guy they interviewed doesn't live too far away either.

You can sell one stick to me, Coug. When my Dad was back from Florida over Memorial Day so that we could make our annual "cemetery circuit" together, he commented that he wished he had some diamond willow so that he could make a fancy cane for himself.

If you ever get up here to go fishing I will give you one. Or you figure out how to get it down to you. That gives me an Idea, I'll go find a 10' skinny stick and finigh it out into a fly rod. Now wouldn't that be cool.
