I met Vince 20 years ago in Cook's Falls NY; a very gracious, unassuming and soft-spoken man. Saw him several times in the years after and he alway wore khaki pants and khaki button-down long sleeve shirt no matter what the temperature was outside. The camp owner who knew for 30+ years told him he never saw him in any other attire.

He made my dad a noodle rod 7' Royal Graphite. That rod is super sensitive and light as a feather. I knew it was pricey but I didn't think it was that much. Have you sold the fly rod yet? Good luck.
