Anyway - thanks to all that chimed in to offer their help. It is
appreciated.

Thanks,

Bob S.

Bob to but in have you ever tried the Manifold ergonomic grips They look
dreadful but as I have a few aches and pains in my hand I tested it I was
amazed by the extra time I could spend before I had to rest up .
Sorry if this is in the wrong place but thought it might help.

John.


John,

Thanks for the suggestion. I did a quick search on "Manifold ergonomic
grips" and didn't come up with any relevant hits for fly fishing grips.
I'll do some more searching but if you have a web site this could very well
be of interest to many others. My concern for a smaller grip is due to the
wife having small hands and a lighter rod with a small grip like the
Winston - feels better.

Ole Arthy-Ritis will certainly be a concern in the future since it's a
family trait but for now - not a big problem.

Thank you,

Bob S.
