I think I'd like to make a sectional wadding staff. Has anyone ever made
one? What did you use?

One of the easiest to make is to go to your Thrift shop, and buy a ski pole.
All you have to do is modify the handle

There are a number of sectional wading staffs on the market that use elastic
cord. I had one of them. While steelhead fishing with it in Oregon, I
noticed that it wasn't fitting together too tightly. When I got out in the
middle of the river, I found out why. the elastic had deteriorated, and the
staff was worthless. Since then I have been fishing with a Simms wadding
staff that has a metal cord

I have one that comes apart too easily when you stick in a muddy bank or
river bed. I can be a real pain at times.
