Part of the problem is that they're popular in Europe, but practically
unknown here. Have your local fly shop, especially if they stock Climax
leaders or lines, order the rings from Climax USA. They're $6.95 for 10
from Climax (outrageous, I know), but you'll save on the shipping.

Talk real nice to Mr. Patton, ask him to visit National Feathercraft if
T Hargrove does not have any and ask him to mail them to you. Send him
a check for his trouble.

I'd be glad to do it for you but the shops in Indianapolis don't carry
them.

I think this is the first time I have ever suggested Feathercraft to anyone
on Roff. Unfortunately this is probably something the Drunk Monkey (Tommy's
nickname) does not carry. And if Larry asks and Bob is willing, they're only
a mile apart.

One of these days you need to see the Winston's tom made for me.
