Hi Yaker:

           I was at Fishermans' Warehouse and saw the 2008 line of Bobs rods. Any Intel on the Product line?The price of $100 looks like a good deal?
                                                                                Thanks

I haven't seen the new ones.  The original series seemed decent.  Looks like they upgraded to some composite blanks this year, which should be an improvement.

Just because they are called "American Spirit" and made by "American Premiere Corp.", don't fool yourself into thinking they are made in USA.  Hecho en China (like most everything else these days).

Hi Sean:
 
         I had a chance to visit Eric's' shop and was impressed with his Artwork. I would have placed a order but, I'm still putting my Son thru Colledge.
