I took my daughter's to see them a number of times locally at a friends bar "This Ain't Hollywood," Joe (look over my left shoulder at the signed paraphernalia available). Good times, up close and personal and chat time with them too.

Thank you Barry, my daughter thought fish scales right off. Silver is on the to do list. 😉

Thank you CM. It's a mylar mesh weave stretched over a carbon sleeve then cast in clear acrylic. It is just for now a working prototype that is going to lead me to more creative designs.

I've had this idea in my head now for some time and finally set my feet on the path to making it a reality last weekend. It's not like anything I've seen in the rod building world thus far and I'm hoping there's a market for it. Yes it's somewhat blingy for sure but not too gaudy in my opinion. I've shown it here on a mock up handle loosely assembled on a length of all thread. Your thought's welcomed. Thanks for looking.

What, you don't like "Porkpie."

Well I'm still searching As noted above from Lew, it was AndyK, I'm still searching the archives for pictures of him here at my home for a New Years Eve party. In the mean time here he is at Lakair (on the right) with my buddy Jef (Team Empty Pockets).

You beat me to it Lew, I was searching my photo archives for pictures of him here on New years Eve so many years ago now. I'm still searching.

Geeeez Brian, those will never work.

The Gentleman to the left of Norm was here for a visit just a few weeks ago.

I was there when it was there. 😉

That's a dandy for sure.

Well there goes the neighbourhood. 😄

I'd have been there for dinner but you know, snowstorm.

I hate you.

This vinyl as well.......

Giving this vinyl a little spin today. Thank you Mr Beck https://duckduckgo.com/?q=beck+blue+wired&t=newext&atb=v337-1&iax=videos&iai=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DTuLzcV6J20U&ia=videos

Absolutely, there is an aluminum front hood concealed inside the fore grip.

"Sweet Caroline," no not the Neil Diamond song, the bass player with Hugh Cornwell in Hamilton.

Happy New Year to all the good folks here I've been working on a prototype handle for Steelheader's (winter anglers) that will bring the comfort of ergonomically contoured reel seats to the game with a seamless grip that does not come with the expense of custom wood or acrylic. It's not only less money but certainly less in weight and undoubtedly less cold on the winter angler's hand. That being said I've finally moved from the prototype work to a completed handle now fully assembled on a vintage D&M 11'8" Regency Series (anyone else remember D&M Rods?) Thanks for looking.

If going in reverse.....

The truth we don't need Saudi oil, we have plenty here we just need to get government out of the way.
