I was looking through the catalog that Geoff sent out earlier and I didn't see any of the Northfork handles listed. I have some of their new carbon handles on a standing backorder with my supplier and am waiting for them to come in.
I would like to know if the following are going to be offered. Yes, I know that I should call Northfork and I will on Monday, I thought I might pose the question to see if anyone else knows if these are available. NFC90016: 16 inch NFC grip material, they recommend the Pac Bay Minima reel seat, NFC 901: 4 1/2 inch fore grip, you cut to fit your application. NFCNUT: Aluminum lock nut. NFCSHIM: taper shim for fore grip. Thanks, Tom Re: North Fork products

The stuff used to be available from Angler's Workshop, it's no longer listed. At the time they were recommending the Super Sticker exposed blank reel seat that not available anymore. Re: North Fork products

Spencer, not sure if you've had a chance to work with it, but I think that it is the nicest stuff I've use thus far. Re: North Fork products

Yes, I have on two rods. At the time the material was way more expensive than the more available tube material, but it gives a much better finished look. The red/maroon kevlar material I've used on my personal rods is still my favorite. Re: North Fork products

I have confirmed with Northfork...... unfortunately these are no longer available to the "public". They are only available on Edge rods. Re: North Fork products

At the time the material was 60% more expensive to use than other tubes on the market. Re: North Fork products

yes, it was very expensive but I feel they were and still are the best that has been offered. Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
