Well, I'm going to work on the message boards, maybe start wrapping a rod or build the rod wrapper ???

Maybe give the Wall a whirl... but that's about it...

1. Change name to "BoyWonder" ;D

2. Think of more sarcastic answers.

3. Start work on my "boat rod". Was a 7 foot Fenwick Too long for my needs, sawed it down to 6'. Got it spined. It's a shame. The rod had a nice Gimbal butt on it. It was nice but would be too heavy for a 6' rod. Anyways. I gotta find the exact length of that reel seat so I can measure for the fore EVA foam grip. The rod has a pretty fast taper so an inch or two really matters. And to think I got that blank for free.

4. Well I guess I'll have to try and make my rod wrapper first. I tried out the "Coathanger rod wrapper" thing and it just didn't work because the table I am working on is too thin. It's one of those long dining room drop-leaf tables or something. I'm just running down to the Home Depot getting some wood and some L brackets and making my own rod wrapper. John, when my mom goes to hang her clothes up, I'm telling it was YOU who put me up to destroying them all. :)

5. Pick up some mustads, some silicon, some olive and white bucktail.

6. Post on Striped-bass.com
