Default Lost fly rod

I know it was a stupid thing to do, but I set the rod down next to the car
at
the South Fork Hoh river trailhead last Friday, and drove away without it.
It's a sweet Loomis with a Ross reel. Anyone who has it or knows who has
it,
please contact me for a reward.

$100 easy money for the finder.

Thanks

good to see you around again chas, though not the topic i'd hoped to
find with your return. i've missed your photos of west coast
steelheading adventures...

i doubt roff and abpf will yield much on the rod, other than the typical
jocularity. that area of the hoh is fairly well-traveled by dedicated
fly-fishers, no? if so, i suspect you'll have more luck with local fly
shops, sport shops, gas stations, and local flyfishing groups, websites,
etc. than these newsgroups...

best of luck...

Thanks Jeff. I'm sure you're right, I've been calling the park service and the
forest service. This time of year most of the traffic is hiking, the steelhead
run is really thin in the summer. This past winter was tough for steelhead
fishing. In the past I've averaged nearly 2 fish per winter day on the Hoh,
this year I got 2 fish on for 11 days. If we could just decomercialize the
steelhead like they did with bass, it would be grand.
