I have to tell you what just happened, A few weeks ago I posted on the flys-n-lies board about a beginning Flyfishing setup. I have had a brand new fly rod for nearly 20 years that had never had a reel on it. I asked for a few suggestions for a rookie, and Shane S. came forward and offered me one of his old reels! I have been meaning to get out to Hillsboro to pick it up for 2 weeks, but one thing (in-law stroke) or another has kept me too busy to go. I get a call today from Shane S, and not only did he still want to give me his old reel (A Pflueger 1878 in excellent shape!) , he actually delivered it to me at work!!!

Cheers to You Shane S! I appreciate what you did and hope I can do the same for someone else someday!!

Jeep-

Totally agree. I've been wanting to build a rod and between BOE & Gus it will probably happen faster than I thought. Couple e-mails and a phone call or two and here we go.

The people are what it's all about!

PS- Dude, your fruity dancing spider man is just a little too creepy. Every time I see it, it's like a train wreck. You want to look, but you feel weird about it and it's kind of scary.
