Very nice to hear your voice again. When can we expect Extreme Flyfishing II?
Thanks for the updates.

Bob, Thank you for the commentary. I hope you will continue. I'll be in Mountain Home in a few hours. I'll say Hi to the Norfork for you. Gerry L.
mcsteff... Thanks. I'm probably going to start writing a "new" EXTREME FLYFISHING" this summer, between rods. I'm sure, fishing the White and Norfork on a regular basis, there will be plenty to write about! LOL
Gerry, anytime you're heading to the Norfork after June, just let me know and I'll go stretch a little line with you. I MUST have advance notice, however. At least 30 minutes! (takes me that long to decide which rod to take and throw it in the car).
Later,
Bob
...Bob...good to hear...hope that all the past , uh, experiences will allow you to stay more focused this time...good luck & wish you the best! QC is one great & forgiving mentor!!
...so many boo rods, so many trout....do I have enough time?...
skeet,
Yeah, QC is something else. The help and advice, both as a craftsman and a businessman, that I've received from Ron is invaluable. I consider him a very dear friend. We talk when we can, but not always about rods. He's a pleasure to talk to and sometimes I just call to say "Whassup!!!"
Well, I will definitely stay more focused this time around. I didn't realize how much I loved rodmaking until I had it taken away from me for the sake of the business ventures of "others". I do dearly love it and will never abandon it again, barring any health concerns.
Later,
Bob
PS: Back in Texas again... just a few more days til I'm back at the shop, then only about 5 more weeks and we'll start moving the shop and furniture to Mountain Home!!!

Where in TX? I am in College Station/Bryan.
Question, what happens to the rejects? Have you considered selling the blanks to us lowly folks?

Brian,
I'm in Paradise, about 30 miles west of Ft Worth. Not for much longer, though. Now less than 4 weeks and the move begins. We're actually leaving here on May 26th.
As for the "bad" blanks, No, I don't sell them. Some of them I fish myself, and some I destroy, but I don't let them get out on the market in any form, even as blanks, as I do not want to take a chance of one of my mistakes ending up out there and someone saying "Man, look at this piece of $%#$... Nunley made it!". Know what I mean???
Well, out of here for now. I'll be back in OK at the shop tomorrow, so I'll probably be in Cane Chat tomorrow night. Hope to see some of you there.
Later,
Bob

Of course you are in Paridise, you are in Texas, right?
I understand about the blanks. I am just far enough in my years to figure the worst someone could say is no and they might say yes. You never know until you sak.
Thanks for the reply.
Brian
