I'm happy to hear both Ross and Paul are happy with the rods I built for them. Like any other craftsman , it is a pleasure to hear that people are happy with your work. Best of luck catching more fish with your 1208's gentleman ( I say "more" because I know you both have already caught some good fish on them! )

Wish i could find myself either a 1208 or 1209 blank. I been hunting for one of the 2 for about 6 months.

I connected with Mike throught this site. He wrapped an AFAW Estuary for me that I don't let out of my sight. I appreciated that he took the time to ask me about intended use and preferences priopr to the build. It paid off.

So sad. I miss Mike already. He was good friend, true gentleman and a superb craftsman.

This rod has hardly been used. It is time to pass it on to someone who can better navigate walking boulders and access surf fishing areas than I. It has passed through the hands of some respected members here and deserves to be fished. Please PM me if interested. I will do some research as to what is a fair price.
