Thumbs up

My first was a bamboo stick with tarred cotton line that my Grandfather gave me. I forgot to retrieve it from the shed when his house sold. I'd love to have it back...

My first store bought was a Shakespeare WonderRod. White spiral-wound glass. Hung a Garcia/Mitchell from it and I was SuperFisherman!

My first custom, well I haven't seen it yet. Got it in a trade and a third party is holding it till this Saturday.

Nice thread, Goose.

He that would make his own liberty secure, must guard even his enemy from oppression; for if he violates this duty, he establishes a precedent that will reach to himself.
