Dear Rodbuilders, If you are in the market for a fly blank, this Saturday and Sunday 7/30 and 7/31 if you buy any FAF and Iconoglass blank, we will include a Flor Grade grip free. More details on the specs of the grip are available here: This is true Flor grade cork, imported from Portugal, from a family farm with which Gary has had a relationship going back 30 years.

I am happy to be very transparent about the reasons for buying RBO. 1) Organic traffic is king, if you search for “rodbuilding” the forum is the first link that comes up, that’s not an ad. Due to the forum being around for such a long time, the back links, authority ranking is near the very top. Companies spend tens of thousands of dollars in ads monthly to be at the top of page temporarily. 2)

If you have tried to read the forum on a mobile phone, it is challenging to say the least. The challenge was to leave the forum as a webpage, but also allow it to function within the app (the search function too, within the app) in addition, we needed to bring the photos (all 20,000 of them) from the photo gallery, that runs on a different module into the app as well. Essentially, we had to &q

It was great to see everyone - Billy and Mary were on point! My favorite moment was when Bill Dance walked into the booth to chat with Gary about the many ICASTs they have been to, and the conversation quickly turned to who had more pain in what part of the body. I did sneak this photo in though! Best, Aleks

Tim, The most common one used by guides in the PNW for side drifting is the ST7111 The tip is light, it loads deep, and the butt had enough power to put the breaks on the fish. Best, Aleks

Dear Rodbuilders, The “App” is now available for download in the Apple App Store! (Don’t worry, for Android phones we are on about a month release timeline) You can login with the same credentials as for the forum, reply to topics, and post pictures! Click the “image view” to see all of the photos posted in the photo gallery! (There is something around 55 MILLION views and they are now ava

The topics moving to the top is really an integration with the App - specifically posting the pictures from the photo gallery into the app, so that the forum is not inundated with new posts on the main page. We are still working through a number of updates, so please keep the feedback coming. Best, Aleks

Add a ** at the end of the VSS** The search has always been a 5 character minimum - We will make an update to the forum software to make it searchable at 3 characters, but that’s in about a week as it’s a fairly complicated change to the phorum database. Best, Aleks

The Rodbuilding.org app will be in the Apple App Store by that time AND we decided to submit it for a “New Product Showcase” for the Software portion of NPS. It would be a pleasure to meet

Geoff, All, apologies for the delayed reply. I am in the midst of ICAST prep, App launch for the forum and earmarked this post as a "must reply" just not in brevity, as the topic of moderation/political posts is important. 1) I view the forum as a living breathing current and historical database of rodbuilding knowledge, combined with an indispensable community of rod builders 2) I

Greg, You can find all of the specs here: Null just means that a value has not been entered for the blank in the database. Which blank? I’ll take a look and get it updated - it was probably missed in an update. Best Regards, Aleks
