New Site Additions

Over the Summer months, two new additions will be added to this site. One will be a library of decorative wraps. I've been compiling these for almost a year now and have about 25 ready to go. We are only left deciding the best way to present them.

The next addition will be a basic "how-to" series on rod building. Nothing in-depth, just a series of short lessons on basic rod building to get newcomers up and running. It won't take the place of any of the excellent rod building books or videos on the market, but should help to give first-timers some concise yet decent background "how-to" information.

I hope to have them added sometime after I finish the Volume 8 #4 issue at the end of June.

Rarely, but when I do go I enjoy each fish caught just that much more.

Tom,

Let me know if you ever want to come fish Santeetlah, Calderwood, or Cheoah Lakes here in extreme Western NC. We are about 4 hours from High Point.. Great fishing this time of year.

Gone fishing
