Just got a reply from Grant:

Sonny,

Not a problem...and my apologies for not getting back to you sooner. We have been completely swamped with orders since releasing the S2 Slider from production and have been racing to make sure all of our customers are taken care of. Can you give me an idea of how many units you think would be included and which model(s) your members would be most likely to want to purchase? If you can provide this information, I’ll go to work on getting a good group discount put together for you.

Best Regards,

Grant

Please let me know which model you want to buy and the quantity so I can organize a group buy discount soon!

I'm still interested in the S2 Slider; Compact; in rubber mesh - either color.

So which one is everyone getting?  I'm assuming that for yakfishing purposes, we want the 29" handle with the rubber mesh?  Black or clear rubber mesh?  Can someone with lot's of "net experience" weigh in?

Since the hoop size is the same, I opted for the compact - a 60" handle seems like overkill for me.  36" should get the job done.

About color, I'll try white this time.  Hopefully the fish will react less to white net than black one due to the color contrast.

If I were purchasing, I'd special order and go shorter handle and larger hoop/net.  I think it is only a few more dollars and would fit my needs.

It's 18" to meet minimum legal size net.

Thanks guys.  I hope to get everyone who interest in this group discount to post their net configurations here before next Friday so I can consolidate the list and contact the vendor for their quote.
