Nothing earth shattering to report.

Was dragged kicking and screaming to the Fly Fishing Show in Somerset, NJ today. Always a nice show - the folks from Saltwater Edge (sans Mike) and Harry from Nauset Angler were there. Picked up some more striper tchotchski.

Folks mentioned Rick Hersom was walking around at the show - he is apparently working as an advisor to VS/Zebco and confirmed that new product will be shipping in July of '04.
