Last NERbs Gathering of the year April 9th in my shop. xlrods@yahoo.com to get on the list, which already has 13 and 3 maybes.

If you want to become a better builder and are close by, make time to attend ASAP. The spots fill up quick, for good reason, it's a great day of information sharing and fun.

One of the best things you can do to improve your rod building skills is to send billy a e mail.

HAHAHAHA!!! to his credit, he's 13 and is entirely comfortable in a group of grown men. Takes & give jokes all day, not afraid to ask a question or answer all of them. Ater the gatheirng he's up late working on stuff that he picked up during the day. I wish more people were as passionate as he is. I am happy not more people ask as many questions though, lmao.

Why'd you put progress in quotes Gabe? I wasn't busting on you at all. Anyway, if you go fishing instead of going to Billy's good luck.

Indian food sounds good.

Gabe, I'll try to do the basic building a rod thing again for you and a few other guys. I'll glue up the handle, CLEAN it, etc. If I wrap anything I'll even do a epoxy application thing.
