Thanks for the pics, Harley. I had to chuckle a little bit when I saw that you were using a Crown Royal bag for your reel. I had a reel sent to me in the same bag a couple years ago as well. It works quite well actually. I guess Scotch and fly fishing just go well together.

I ditched the bag and cleaned the reel but the line was forever tainted...

I was going to throw it away, but my wife told me to put in the garage to air out for a few days, and it was fine.

I'm not talking like a customer brought them in to off load, but rather the fly shop stocks these things as a permanent product...go figure!!!! My brother in-law drinks the stuff and gives me all the bags I need... Cameron wanted to see the "Nose Art" Tight Lines, Harley Lk. Stevens, Wa. Last Edited By: harleydeen 05/10/09 01:02:42.

We don't get "sexy" around here much...so you've got to show it off when you do have it. What is the story behind that decal again? www.TheFiberglassManifesto.com

I knew it was a diamond in the rough and was happy to pass it on. The rod looks like it will serve another few generations. Tight Lines and H.I.
