Everett E. Garrison (1893–1975) was a structural and electrical engineer who developed an exacting method of creating fine bamboo rods. His methods, steeped in the engineering principles he learned during his education, became the standard by which many other rod makers were measured. Mr. Garrison was laid to rest in Ossining, New York.Hoagy B. Carmichael is a world-renowned expert on fishing tackle with more than forty years of fly-fishing experience. The Garrison-Carmichael Rod Shop that he and Everett Garrison built was recently installed on permanent display at the Catskill Fly Fishing Center in Livingston Manor, New York. Carmichael is the author of five books on fishing including Side Casts, 8 By Carmichael, and the classic The Grand Cascapedia River: A History (Volumes I and II). He lives in North Salem, New York.
