Hello
Allow me to introduce myself .
I am Andy. M . also known as Andymanyankee and bassman195700
I just signed on today.
I have been reading the great posts here for some time and today I was invited to join in .
The reason I decided to introduce myself here in the rod building forum is that I am a rod maker and will have the most interest in this area.
My passion is Fiberglass Fly Rods.As well as Bamboo ,Graphite ,Etc
I see the heading says Cane and Graphite I hope Glass is welcome.

Andy,

Welcome to FAOL. Feel free to participate in the banter at any time. Hopefully we can learn something from you since you suffer the same addiction as many of us, and maybe we can teach you something as well. Oh, and yes, glass is welcome, as long as it has a bit of elixer of the gods in it!

Welcome, to the site.

As far as I know almost anything is ok with the possible exception of triple hooks and shudder Worms

Welcome Andy- from another glass freak and member of Fiberglass Flyrodders Forum.
Gentlemen, and ladies- this guy knows his stuff. Very knowledgable and free with his advice and information (to a certain extent )

Welcome! After that endorsement from RS1, I'm anxious to hear what you have to say. Best Regards.....

Hello
Thank you all for the welcome !
You might say I am reading the water .
I am very impressed by some of the rod builds and the good advice I have seen thus far.
I spent several hours reading previous post last night.
Thanks again.

In order to post here, you have to show us your work.

Just kidding. I'm just desparate for some pictures.

Andy,

My fishing partner, Kurt Jackson, has bought a couple of rods from you: the 6' one piece Lee Wulff replica Garcia Conolon and his most recent purchase was a 7" rod built on a Scott blank, with the most interesting ceramic guides I have seen. I think I remember you posting something on Fiberglassflyrodders about these guides. After seeing these rods (and casting the Lee Wulff replica), I can speak to the quality of work you do. I can't wait to try out that Scott.

Welcome aboard Andy. For you others on the board- I just had Andy do a refurbish on a Johnson Profile fiberglass flyrod I had and I can assure you that he does first class work.

Hello
Thanks for all the welcomes and compliments folks !
I am busy helping Chris Kringle for the big day so I am straight out.
The other night I composed a new post but I had trouble adding the photo's so I nixed it.
When I get more time I will become more interactive .
