I like supporting locals so I check capt. Don's first. He stocks Afterhours and I use them a lot. Second choice would be buying direct from the maker's website if there is one and it's possible. The makers who are sponsors here make nice stuff and I can't see ever NEEDING any more than is offered by them in the way off better quality semi customs. SWE is a ride for me but it certainly is a nice store. Be warned that if you go there to meet someone to pick up a rod you bought in the classifieds and you get there early to look around and Steve McKenna is there all alone and you ask to see a few of those reels that everyone likes so much (VS) and he shows you several... you may be scraping around for several hundred $$$ in the next week or two.
