I was there all 3 days listening to seminars to pick up any new info, brush up on some things and delete some habits. Got some plugs and a bunch of rubbers too.

Hey guys. I've built a lot of rods over the yeas. I can't remember a single style that didn't fail or break at one time or other. It happens. we hard cores push the envelope. nothing built today will take all the beatting we give them what with braid,new heavy drag reels,big plugs,lead heads and metal.It's part of the cost of what we do.Chill,accept it and try to figure what the cause was and go to another rod.The lighter they are the weaker they are. look what happened to Kunnan rods and the ist loomis glx 10 weight fly rods.It's gonna happen.Find out why let the builder an manufacterer know what happened an how so they can fix the problem . that way the next run will be better. Let go back to the post an not hyjack it anymore. The RISSA Show was great this year.

I went Friday...

I found out Tattoo Bob knows everyone. I mean...everyone. I was able to pick up a couple AH's and a couple Surf Asylum Needles. Still not unhappy with my current rods but the Century and CTS rods are tempting. Did not see any Tuf-Line braid for my boat jigging setup or Eelskin Jr's or A40's. really that's all I wanted. This show is my official, unofficial kickoff to the season. Soon there will be less keyboard time and more standing on rocks.
