Did it for ya.  Gave you my basics for my answers to keep it simple. 

👋 welcome

NOT a huge reader, but love listening to anything that is in the historical realm of things. Last audio book I listen to was Meditations from Marcus Aurelius.

Oh yeah, a hockey fan!  I played for 7 yrs and was a coach for 8.  Those pros are something else, most talented and underrated  game on earth in my opinion!

That's cool you said that about the build your own rod class.  Next time I make my way up there I am going to need to figure that into the trip!  Thanks for that info, did not know that.

I've seen the one you have in some of your videos, I bought the same one my first time visiting the store last year!  

It's neat seeing the inside of the place.  This is my second visit, and this time I was able to have my mom and son along.  I'm glad my kid got to see it.  Being this time of year the tours aren't going on right now, so next time I get up there I am going to try to schedule a tour of the place.  I did go up there with 5 rods and came back with 6.  Can't drive 3 hrs. and not buy anything!!  I got 2 rods repaired, 3 rods replaced and upgraded and bought one new one.  The Mojo series came out with a new handle end set up which I got upgraded to, so that was cool on 2 of my rods.  I think one of the best things about that company (my opinion) is if you buy their product, they stand buy it!  They don't question much of anything.  They really treat ya right on the costumer end of things.  Plus to me, they are part of my state and I consider them local and if I can I will always try and support that crowd if I am able!

Their slop-n-frog rod is one of my favorite rods from that MOJO bass series. One of the reasons I made the trip, I did the OL-LAY to hard and snapped it in 3, 😆 had to make use of their warranty!

You and your family have a great Christmas and can't wait to see what you come up with for your Sig. Series rods!

I'll probably still be on the road headed back home, I'll have to catch it later.

That was really nice.. Happy Birthday man!
