Where can I get river cane

(1/4) > >>

kerbinator:
Hello all,
I need to find a good source that I could get river can from. I live in north east Texas around the sulphur river area. Tanks for listening.

Pat B:
You probably have river cane growing along the Sulphur River.

xin:
What Pat B said. If there is none along the sulfur or Sabine then  head toward Texarkana..There is river cane growing all along Hwy 82 east of Texarkana.  I've stopped and harvested several loads just along the highway.  It makes really nice arrows.

kerbinator:
Thanks for the reply fellas. Hope to find some soon.

xin:
Kerb., you're far enough into E.Tx that you're out of the phragmites and into river cane.  You should be able to find an abundant supply along the Sulfur or Sabine. If not, along highway 82 east of Texarkana.  This is the flood plain of the Red.  It's growing everywhere along the highway.  I live in Sherman and I know there is plenty of phragmites  between here and Sulfur Springs and phragmites is not as tough as river cane, but nonetheless makes serviceable arrows.
