[cool]Wow! Just read that old thread that you linked to on rod building, and it was quite impressive. I hate to admit it, but it looks like you've peaked the interest of another "future rod builder," TD! I just got a new job, so the income will get a little better for my fam soon, but right now I still need to pay off some debts and get outta my in-laws and into a house next summer. However, after that I may have some funds and time (yeah right on the time part) to start getting into that stuff. Let's see, let me dream a little...I need a couple of great perch/bluegill/crappie rods, a couple more great spinning medium action rods, a couple of nice cat spinning rods, cat baitcasting rods, bass bait casters, and of course, they'll all have to be Loomis blanks too... Like Jed said in that thread last year, I want to (and hopefully will) have as much tackle and materials as you some day too! Well, a fella can dream, can't he?[crazy]
For right now though, since funds are tight, I'd better just stick with making my own jigs with what I have at the moment. Dang you, Pat-you got me into that too, LOL!,
