Thread: anyone willing to donate a rod?

  1. #1

    Default anyone willing to donate a rod?

    Is there anyone out there that may have an old flyrod and reel..i got into tying and love it. i was hoping to get a rod for christmas but didn't happen. i have three daughters, one in college, so money is tight...just throwing it out there ...doesn't hurt to ask, God bless

    I do not consider this as "Begging". Lots of new to the sport of FF & Tying have been helped by others here on FAOL. If you can help someone out, do it. If not, how about contacting me to see if what you are going to post is proper? Might save you some face.

    I really dont have a preference at this point being that i am close to a fresh water lake with bass and crappie in it, and also close to the gulf of mexico for reds and sea trout.

    But he is asking if anyone has 1 to spare Jerry,not bugging everyone to give it to him. That is completely different.

    so wanted to buy for $1 passes, but asking is begging?

    What about those asking for equipment for teaching kids to tie or fish. Or asking for flies for a benefit. Unlike the chat room you don't have to read every post on the board. Just my thoughts.
    There are moments when, whatever be the attitude of the body, the soul is on its knees.

    So if I ask for donations to be able to give to a charity like CFR or others I guess I am begging also, leave the guy alone, and try and help out a fellow angler, not belittle him

    While not free, this LL Bean sale flyrod/reel combo is pretty hard to resist!
