EK - I'd like to place an order for one as well....but:

1 - can you make my hook like Allen Bushness (off set)
2 - make the total lenght of the gaff to 30 inches (from the the very top of the hook to the base / handle) 
3 - instead of the NCKA design, can you add ruler measurements instead?
4 - use a more visible color on the foam grip - I like the color orange.

let's talk some time - no rush

Thanks again, Erik!
This thing seems like it will be PERFECT for kayak fishing!

For those interested in ordrering a gaff... I've changed a few things around and have added a "Gaff Order" page to my website to make the process easier.

http://www.kzreelrods.com/gaff_order.html

You'll notice that I've had to increase my prices slightly because of the scarce availablity of suitable shaft material at a decent price.  Also, my supplier (the sole source for this material) tripled the price of the Camo colored grip material, I've had to make that option a cost-added option as well.   

See my website if you are interested in ordering.  Thanks to all who have ordered already... much appreciated.  I'll definitely be kicking a few of these down for the raffle at the Elk derby.

Z... glad it arrived safe and sound. 

Still waiting on someone to actually stick something with one of these. 

Frank has tested the floating a couple times now  :smt002

Ride123, Sackyak, Potto, and Sailfish... they'll be done this week.

I am hoping mine get a solid workout at the RCG opener at least or hopefully a nice hali before then...

EK, That part of R&D is handled. I think I need to move onto the next project like a nice Salmon or something of that nature....
