Wylie
Whats the latest word on the "Darth Vader" rods? Availability? In production? In distribution or one at a time still?

Hi Ken,
I don't know how far it will go but a gentelman named Eric Stromland has contacted me again (last time was 2002) and has mentioned introducing Killwell to my product. I still have to get a rod to him to take with him which I should be on pretty soon. I have had a family member visiting and this has set me back on production a ways.

Other then that I'm still plugging away at them one at a time as I've been doing for years. I am working for a paving company now here in Idaho and we lay off for the winter months so I do have more time now in the winter months for production.

Anything I can put together for you Ken?

Tight wraps and lines,
Wylie

Hi Ken
I built two of them, so I can say " Luke I am your father", built one to and we could have a match.
Best Regards Mark Crouse

Hi Justin,
I work for Valley Paving, based in Bellevue Idaho a subsidiary of Lakeside Industries out of Washington.

No I am not the Shimano rep. My uncle owns a paving co. in the Fruitland area and I was curious if you worked with him, but apparently you do not. Oh well, happy fishing
