This is about all I know about it but I heard from Mike Thomas and Mike from Bucko's confirmed it... Don't know how it was taken other than it was...

I was at M&Ds picking up a couple fishing things (Batson blanks: 1087,1088,1089 and associated guides, seats and butt tape, would have gotten more but there is a shortage of graphite fiber on the global market after Saltheart's last trip there). He aslo had some interesting Plasticized tape, similar if not the same to what is used on a lot of new Loomis rods. Kind of a black, almost rubberized sand paint, nice and grippy. I'll take a shot of it and put it up...

Then Bucko's confirmed this when I was picking up some more Smoothie Drag washers for my 6500 reels...

otw mentioned it too, but i've been skeptical since they talked about all the phantom cod hanging in the ditch this winter.
