Don,

The numbers of posts are up and have been growing every month since last June when this board went online. I think it averages about 50 posts per day.

But the important thing is not how many posts are made, but that the rod builders are able to get the information they need. This board is less of a "chat" board and more of an information exchange site. That's the way it should be.

I have been building rods for 20 years, the rods I have made have been for my own use. Most of those rods I can say were of poor quality, but since being part of this board I have improved my quality by light years and would be proud to show my work to anyone.

I post here and ther but mostly read others comments and suggestions and follow some of the threads. I thin that sveeral books can be written form whats been posted on this message board.

Thanks again Tom

I to Have been building rods for over 20 years, and I to would agree this site has helped increase my Knowledge 100 fold. and would like to say I'm amassed by how much work Tom Kirkman gets done and still has enough time to answer question so fast on this board. Hats off to you Tom Kirkman keep up the good work.

Thanks Gordon Glover

P.S I like the new cover of Rodcrafter, My mail man likes to spill his coffee on my issue so the cover really helps.

Maybe we're all too busy building rods to post,I I'm lookin dead in the eyes of the fishin season......Springs comin' and I've got to get ready...cobia will be on the panhandle any day now,Spanish then Kings and Dolphin, Snapper season opens in April, I gotta find some rocks at 100ft for Grouper, + put a Boston Whaler back together in the meantime....Sheesh, That's why we do this right? To fish when we want, where we want, How we want, with cool rods?

Of course!! WE gotta go when we want, where we want, and how we want!! No work for a fisherman...just fishin time

The only useful work is buildin rods, tyin flies, and making lures!!
