James,

Thanks for the explanation of that insider Fenwick comment. If nothing else, since Fenwick made a lot of glass rods for serious fishermen, the odds are with you when you pop the question. The insight of it helps me, even though I never used a Fenwick. As I try to transition from glass and early graphite rods to something more 21st Century I sense that the timing is way different. What would you compare it to?
