I know that it's generally considered rude to show up and start announcing your business without a proper introduction, and most of the time, a good fish story is expected. So, I promise to post one in the near future.

Until then, please forgive my breach of etiquette, because I had to share that we shipped our first distributor blanks today. You can find them at Angler's Workshop, Bingham Enterprises and Mud Hole. You can learn more about what we are up to at our blog (http://northforkcomposites.com/blog/)

Great Jon, I'm looking forward to building a few of these blanks. I hope to see you guys at Highpoint this year!

Jon, hot for the fly rod blanks! Any time schedule yet?

Jon, thanks for lettig us know. Glad to see them shipped.

Jon, I was tempted to ask this privately, via email, but because I think it's a subject of general interest, I'll ask here: are NFC blanks going to be fair-trade priced?

Chris,

On the chance that Jon will be off this weekend I think I can answer that for you - yes, they are going to be fair trade priced both at the retail and wholesale level.

I suspected as much, Tom, but I'm glad I asked. It's a plus for everyone -- I think these blanks are going to be in pretty high demand, and it's good to hear that there won't be a feeding frenzy on the sale of them. I'm looking forward to playing with them as much as anyone.
