...and a few casting lessons.:)
 
I just sent in my deposit for another James Reid bamboo Spey. I had to replace the Riverwatch I sold.
 
Very nice collectibles.

I imagine you were able to score all three for less than 500 or so?

New DR stone rods retail for 1095.00 for a hex and 1195.00 for a hollow built. I paid a good deal less then that. The heddon I am having assessed as to actual value.
 
I was very pleased to see the bamboo rods.....when I read the title, I thought it may have to do with the POTUS and Halloween....

I really like the look of the rod in the first three pics......

Beetle just wanted to know how much of your money he wasn't getting this year, through gubberment handouts.

The gale creek taper. Haven't received it yet but I love the looks of the rod and really want a 3 weight. Most of my rods are 5 weights. A 3/4 is ideal for the poconos when you plan on fishing dries:)
