are things looking up?

could they get any worse?

I'm not really talking about anything in particular

my psychological fitness rodbuilding the american economy local politics

and number of things

so I got a rod order recently

w/ one left to finish for the poore girls

two fe thomas tapers for myself

and two possibilities still up in the air

I will order components after the holidaze

and move on from building a blank to finishing some rods

why in the hell am I building myself two more rods?

one of which is a clone of one I already use alladamntime

my mentor is leaving the state

there is oh so much I still need to pick his brains on

and just from a fellowship point of view

I enjoy spending tome w/ him 

and he will be long gone

though I get a sneaking suspicion that I may well be fishing for goldens this sunmer

post holiday blues settle in right easily

and they are less easy to shake

I suppose what I'm saying is that if you want a handmade

custom split cane flyrod - now just might be the time to order it

you'll be fishing it this spring
