CCS Data Site has been UPDATED!!!

Thanks for everyones extreme patience. I've updated the site with the data for 45 rods and blanks that were submitted over the last few months.

There are now about 330 custom & production fly rods, ~380 fly blanks, & about 45 spinning & other rods in the tables.

I'm pretty busy these days with my job & building a custom flats skiff from scratch ([www.wetconcepts.com]) I've fished once in the last year & I don't remember the last time I built a rod (x-mas '05 maybe?). So while I'm still around now & then, I'm not as "connected" as I used to be with my rodbuilding hobby - Sorry Tom I even let my subscription lapse :( But, as soon as the boat is finished (6 weeks I hope), then I'll have more free time for fishing, rodbuilding & fly tying.

Thanks again for everyone's patience & happy fishing - Bob

Bob,
Thanks for the time and effort you have made in developing and maintaining your CCS Data Site. I for one refer to it for most of the decisions I make when purchasing or comparing blanks. It's a great tool for all of us that take advantage of your generosity.

Bob, that boat looks really good. Will be following that one as she progresses. Good luck. Also, thanks for providing all that CCS data.

I've always wanted to build a boat. If I ever do, I suppose that I'd push some other things out of the way as well.

You aren't charging anyone anything to host and maintain the CCS data so I have no complaints. Get to it when you can.

Thanks for all your efforts to host and share these data Bob. I second what Stan and Tom have said...I rely on the information a lot and have no complaints. It's a generous thing you are doing.
