Andy,
I am absolutely THRILLED to see you won that ‘boo, & You must have been sittin’ by the computer for as fast as you responded! LOL!
I just think it’s great…too bad for ol’ Jack Hise. He’s gonna have to dig into his pockets for one…& we KNOW he will.
Congrats again…it’s always great to see someone win who will truly treasure & appreciate the “goods”.

Mike,
Thanks!! I just came in from work and read my e mails. It’s been a long night. Already have the catalogs strewn across the living room looking for the correct reel.
I know for a fact I’m the only Game Warden in Texas with a new Elkhorn bamboo!! I’m all over this deal big time!!!
Poor Jack! My wife said,“It’s about time!!” Of course she wasn’t too thrilled when I woke her up to tell her. Oh well!!
I’m goin’ “huntin” with a "boo!!!

Mike;
I think buttermilk woke up half of Texas!!
I will be placing my order this morning!!
Brian at Elk Horn recommended a WF4 or a DT5 for the 7.5’ 5 wt. So all I have to do is buy a line.
Don’t forget the Michigan Fish-In August 14th to the 20th. The Holy Water’s of the Au Sable await you!!

Andy,
Check out this reel.

It is a classic design and looks as nice in your hands as it does on the web.
A less expensive option might be the Okuma Magnitude. It is very light and less expensive than the Elkhorn Classic. I’ve got one and it has given me flawless service for the 3 years I’ve owned it.

Andy,
Sincerely (kinda sorta) Congrats! Been drooling over the possibility of a 'boo for some time. Just knew it belonged out here in Maryland. But if it had to go anywhere, at least it made it to God’s country. Next time I’m out to Lubbock to see my folks I’ll give ya a shout so I can drool all over it. Take good care of “OUR” rod.

Live each day as if it were your last, some day you’ll be right!
Mike K,
E mail me ahead of time and I’ll let you throw it. We can work some of the playa lakes and maybe do some good. Golden algae has pretty much wiped out the Canyon and Buffalo Springs Lakes.

Congrats Andy!
Even though I think there was a mix up with our names. lol.
Buttermilk,
This from a former winner. Congratulations on your good fortune. While I also won a fly rod, though not a “boo”, it made my year. Enjoy your win and remember to let your friends throw it a future fish ins.

I’d rather be in Wyoming!
Andy, if you go to ebay and search for a Ballan reel. You will find the Bill sells them for $239. This is a great reel for bamboo.
Congratulations, Andy!
