How dare you spit on one of my first fly rods. Why the audacity! Pick up the
glove sir! Be thou forever barred form the threshold of the house of Horton!

fat fish...

I thought that might have sounded a bit arrogant! Too many Monty python
movies! I just know that Montagues were pretty low in the bamboo rod
heierarchy, and I try to aim a bit higher than that.

Peter, I learned to fly fish on an old Montague and another boo that
was made in occupied Japan and sold at Sears for $5. I can assure you
that the rod you built for me is far better than any Montague.

Thanks, Dave. You must be getting psyched to go to the Rapid.

Yeah, I have cabin fever pretty badly. Going up in mid-May for ice
out, then the end of May. As I do every year, I'll fish your rod at
least once, along with Zimmerman's, Gehrke's, and Ron Kussee's. I
landed a very nice brook trout last June on your rod - probably went 4
pounds.
