Per the recent threads on this forum about “Mudhole Clout?” we simply point readers to the following article which just was published in the Denver Colorado Pueblo Chieftain newspaper:
[www.chieftain.com]

We say with great pride Mr. Loyd is our customer, in fact we helped get his program off the ground and continue our special relationship to this day. We are proud of his efforts, accomplishments and success at bringing the education and business programs to correctional centers.

Mud Hole has been active in expanding the art of rod building into new communities of people who might not otherwise have enjoyed this rewarding craft. We feel that providing education, job skills and therapy to prisoners is not about clout, ego, influence or power. It is about sharing our love of rod building beyond this Forum, the Internet or paper catalogs – in a way that positively affects lives of people. We strive for that in every customer we have the pleasure of serving.

To archive this goal, we believe in reaching beyond the ordinary marketing efforts to expand the world of rod building to others that don’t even know “you can build your own fishing rod”. Hence, a copy of our 2008 Catalog was shipped to every subscriber of Rod Maker Magazine.

At Mud Hole we love what we do – pure and simple. Backed by dedicated employees striving to provide outstanding customer service, rod building knowledge, catalogs and web experiences - it’s easy to see why some might call it Clout – we prefer to call it sharing our love of rod building.

Regards.

God bless you!! This is why I, personally, will continue to use Mudhole as one of my primary suppliers. Folks, this IS what it's all about!!! Giving back to the society that they have taken from, or caused harm to.

What a fascinating story. I tip my fishin hat to all at Mud Hole!

"Life is too short to fish with UGLY rods!"

Makes me want to go rob a bank, I'm at work and these guts are sitting back spinning rods with a wonder weaver no less, the only problem is I like to fish my rods after I build them.

Way to go Mud Hole. Great story,sure looks like the inmates have a great place to work,neat and tiddy.
By the way,great looking cover on the 2008 cataloge. Keep up the great work Mud Hole team.

Mudhole- I think you need not worry too much. You've proven your usefullness and reliability over several years and have nothing to prove. If I weren't stationed back in Japan now I'd still be making the monthly drive from Tampa to Orlando to flex blanks and stock up.
