I will clean up the shop good Fri night. Is everyone set with directions that will be attending? Any questions?

Anyone got any wild plugs they may want to trade? :)

I have a Ron Arra video we can play on a vcr which can help some folks out.

Super!!

Anything we all need to bring?

I would recommend that people don't bring their entire reel collections ;) - bring a little cleaning solvents, oil, & drag lubes with you if you want. Maybe some egg crate or tupperware so you don't get your stuff mixed in with someone elses ;) ... Don't know if I'm bringing Calcutta or ABU ???


Oh - yeh, everyone should bring enough small tools (screwdriver, pliers, needlenose) to O/Haul their own reel ....

Anything else?

Thanks,

John

Would love to make it , but my mom's 80th birthday party is Sat in Worcester. She'd kill me if I didn't show. Have fun.

JP

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MRS POWERS !!!!!!

Do you need me to bring anything ( ie: food newspaper grease drinks ie: soda , water ) ? Ill be there around 10am or so .

Smokey and I are coming and plan on bringing two of his brothers. We are looking forward to it since we had a great time last time with the plug building , jig making , plastic pouring , fly tying etc thingy the last time.

C-Ratt and myself will be there , we may make a pit stop at M&D on the way down, just waiting to hear from Mike if he is going to be there. I have three cans of powerlube, and a small tupe of Penn reel grease. I can bring some small hand tools as well. Need anything else.

Slip the paint is actually not olive, it is this :

I will be in the shop at 10 if you need me their earlier just say the time and i will meet you there.

I will send the reels with the guys on saturday.
:D

a couple guys have emailed me on parts. the Pawls are the same on all size Abu reels

Mike - What time will you be there? I may need to stop in beforehand as well...

I will be there 9:30-10:

Cool - I'll probably hit your place on the way over....

JPowers & OX - Happy Birthdays to both of your Moms

If a bunch of you guys are headed to Wareham beforehand, then when you head back up 495 north, just take exit 3 instead of 4. Go right off ramp north on rt 28 and i'm up a couple miles at most.
Just to save ya from following the directions from the other way. :)

Im bringing 2 cans of 3in1 and some reel grease and reel lube . Also a hairdryer to heat the bearings on the conventionals to remove old oil . I'll bring some extra soda as I dont drink alcohol when fishing or near fishing equipment or sharp instruments or dull ones for that matter ;) .

See you guys there!!!! :), I'll bring something or other....

If you need parts for after noon let me know and i will leave them out for my father with a note.
He is totally lost when it comes to the Rod Building Room and Reel parts, :smash:
and don't mind the scattered boxes .new product is coming faster than I can deal with it at this time.:o

Mike I think we all plan to be there by 10 am.
