    Default a few new toys

    first pic is a 7 5wt built on vintage NOS Heddon blank and wrapped in blue. made this for a University of Michigan fan
    second is what my friend calls Darth Vaders 8wt. Amtak Matrix blank with their matching reels seat and all cabon fiber grips and butt
    third is a 8'6 wt based on a Paul young Para 15 taper.

    It's good to know someone is still waving a Heddon rod, that was my first cost $7 and I caught a boat load of bream and a few bass with it.

    When you can arrange your affairs to go fishing, forget all the signs, homilies, advice and folklore. JUST GO.

    Actually I'm more of a Go Green Go white(Michigan State University) person than a U of M. But u of M signs the paychecks. Go Buckeyes and anyone else that plays Michigan.
