Batson Catalog

I picked up a new Batson catalog at the big rod Expo in Feb. Just now have had a chance to sit down and really look though it. Man, this thing is great. It's a good read on a rainy evening. More stuff than you can shake a stick at. I guess I didn't realize just how much stuff was out there for building rods. Almost too many choices.

The Batsons outdone themselves w/ thier new catolog. It is hands down the finest, easiest to read and most beutiful rod building matterials catolog I've ever seen! If you haven't seen it yet, they have a copy online to veiw but I still love looking at rod building or any fishing related catalogs I get in the mail, I've been getting piles of them every year for more than 45 years it still excites me to find one in the mailbox after a day at work, so I've seen a few. This one is special! No, I don't work for Batson but I did have the honor of meeting both brothers at the Expo, great guys, regular fishin folk!
PS>> Yes, I recycle all those catalogs!
