Thanks for the info StacyR! Yesterday under the tree I found a brand new GLoomis Streamdance 6 wt, 9 '.
Here is how it made it's way from the North Pole (Boise) to Preston Idaho.
When you posted this I mentioned it to my wife and told her that was a heck of a deal and dropped it.
After I left she contacted my son in Pocatello and asked him to go look at the Poky store. He happened to be with one of the managers from that store at that time and he said they did not have them at the store. He called my wife back and let her know they were not available in Pocatello.
My wife then got on the phone and called the Boise store and one of the managers there confirmed that he had them but he could not put one in layaway because the store does not have a layaway policy. He was a real nice guy and gave her all the info on the rods left.
She called my son back because he had mentioned maybe his friend Bob who lives in Boise could pick one up for her. He called Bob and he dropped everything and run over to store and scored the last 6 wt for me.
The rest of the story is my surprised and happy face when I opened that shipping tube yesterday morning. What a nice rod!
I hope everyones Christmas went as well as mine!
