Long time, no talk. I see ROFF isn't dead yet, but it certainly
smells funny. :-) I don't have anything to offer in the way of TR's, as all my favorite streams are just about dried up from the damned drought (2 years of it). The good news is I retired on Oct. 31st, so I have plenty of time to not fish. ;-) The next phase of our lives is to sell our house here and make the move to our little town in the heart of Mexico. (And no, we're not afraid of the drug wars there; would you avoid Austin if there were people being killed in Detroit over drugs?) Anyhow, part of getting ready for the move involves "liquidating excess inventory". With that in mind, I figured I'd give you ne'er-do- wells the first shot at a couple of rods I don't plan to take with me. (Yeah, coals to Newcastle and all that, still I'd be happier if one of youse was using them than selling to some unknown on Ebay or Craigslist.) The rods a Scott S3 803/4 8' 4 pc. 3 wt. Serial#63597 manufactured ca. 2004, original tube and sock; gently used less than 10 times; $300 Diamondback Diamondglass fiberglass 703, 3 wt. 3 pc. 7' rod, only used on a couple of Smoky Mountains brookie streams, original sock and tube; $150 You can contact me off the group at if you're interested.

I hope that I have the chance to meet up with you sometime in the future on one of those lovely streams you know so well. My biggest regret about our move is that there aren't any streams like those where we'll be living. But, that's life and I anticipate our time in Mexico will be very special. Chuck Vance |

I just saw a photo of Guanajuato that almost made my heart stop. Have fun, wherever you land. - JR |
