There's always got to be at least one loser for everyone to poke fun at.

This will confuse them, 2 of us to poke fun at...

So whats thw go on the weekend, are we all going to build a rod each or are we going to get to sit back, drink piss and watch one of the masters at work.................... My main desire is to learn enough to build a decent surf rod that not only performs but looks pretty.........My last one did not look pretty. But for the weekend i'd be happy to do a offshore heavy spin/bait rod, so if anyone has some suggestions as far as blanks that would suit I'm all ears......

Oh crap. Another typo.
I meant to type.... There's always got to be at least one loser for everyone to poke fun at...... and I cannot see Lucky Phil's name on the list??

Mark,

if as per the previous years, you each build a rod of your choice..the first year someone built a rod that resembled a cran jib..but it did look good at the end...I don't remember who that was, do you Ian ???

Stuart will be the one to tell you what he has planned..he runs the show.

No Andrew, this weekend is for rod building.

The weekend is for those that want to learn to build a rod from scratch from a professional rod builder ( Stuart ) and also for those that want to upgrade or refresh their skills.

I will however keep in mind the great offer and when that Rod Repair Day comes around, I'll post up the details and we can sort those spare rods. Thanks.

I will be at the rod building weekend, of course. Did someone mention beer ?

Cheers Phill

[DaveB]

Got room for 1 more? Can't make both days but would love to squeeze in for one of them.

Cheers

Sorry guys, I should have posted in a bit more detail in relation to the rod building repair side of things? If you have an old rod you want repaired then bring it along with the replacement parts and we will take it apart and re do it the correct way. If you want a new rod built then bring the blanks, reel seat, grips, thread and guides along and I will assist you in assembling it. You will need to bring the gear I mentioned at the start regards glue thinners and everything else.
