    Bill--

    Agreed on the Seaguar AbrazX. Excellent product, and value.
    I use it for steelhead and stripers and it's proven to be consistent and dependable.

  9. Bring the TCX rods, too

    Aaron--

    For side-by-side comparison with the new Sage "One" short spey/switch rods, I suggest you bring along the TCX 7119 and 8119 (and others?) to the June 23 event. It sounds like fun.

    For example, Grist Mill is a unique and irreplaceable access IMO. AND it gets used! Today when I returned...

    Glad to hear it, Bill!

    Some of us still half-expect to see Dave on the river with a client when we're drifting the Lower American for stripers. He left an indelible mark, and is still missed.
