Worlds Largest Fly Fishing Pole-Houston
Canada's Largest Fishing Rod (as the District of Houston bills it) is an outdoor roadside landmark in Houston, BC, conceived in the 1980s when BC tourism promoters encouraged communities to erect signature structures to put themselves on the map. The rod was championed by local fly fisherman Warner Jarvis and became Houston's defining roadside attraction. Cyclists riding the Yellowhead Highway (Hwy 16) corridor pass through Houston and this quirky giant landmark serves as a notable community waypoint.
