Just to clarify. There is a nutty woman around saying that I have been attempting to take credit for Scott Throop’s Tiger Wrap. I contacted her personally and corrected her bad information but she did not respond. I have no idea what her beef is but this is absurd. Anyone that has the actual issue of Rodmaker Magazine where the two articles ran will already know that I credited Scott as the originator and first person to do that technique. The same thing was said in the editor’s page. Scott and I discussed it before the articles ran. This was over three years ago.

Looking forward to the Expo.

You said that in the 3rd installment of your article series. Nobody here that I know of has accused you or anyone of hijacking the technique. You gave credit that Scott did it first. So????

Mike, are you REALLY sure you are yourself? Somedays, I'm not so sure I am me!
And, there is so much craziness going around these days. All I want to do is make rods, not fuss and fight all the time.
