Rod builder article

For those in the local area, the Raleigh News & Observer ran a nice article this past Thursday on their outdoor with information on how to select rods based on power and action. Skeet Bennett, who many of you here probably know in person, was their main contact person for this information. There were a couple of nice photos of Skeet working on rods and more than a few quotes from him.

It was a nice article, very informative for area fishermen and hopefully got Skeet some exposure as well. Nicely done.
