New Toy to play with!! Soon!!
« on: June 19, 2007, 05:56:13 PM »
SO I was just informed that my new Custom Rod should be done early next week just in time for Reds on the Vedder!!  ;D ;D  It is just me, or do other people get this pumped for new gear that they have been waiting a long time for?   ;D  He said that it was coming along great, and that the Weirdassed handle we came up with looked pretty funky, but in a good way.  Well, either way, it should be a one of a kind!  :o  I can't wait to see it, then not to long before I hopefully get to put it to the test with a nice fresh Springer. ;D

It's comparable to going to bed the night before Christmas when you were a kid.

Now remember to put it in your truck before you go and talk to someone this time  ;) . I am still surprised the other custom still has not been found or seen.

A fisherman can never have enough rods or reels.

Sorry to break the bad news but this year there will be no angling for salmon with the use of custom built rods. Something about it being an unfair advantage to the bar fishermen. 

Good luck with the new stick.

Well, I won't be challenging any Bar fishermen with this rod... ;D  This is a Smaller river (Vedder, squamish, Chehalis) rod!! ;)

Here is a pic of that handle I was talking about...
