  10. Dan, Bob is a great guy, no doubt about. I found him to be very responsive when I sent him a question last year, he certainly was helpful. Saw the pics of your son very cool. Have submitted photos of my sson with fish and they sure do get a kick out of seeing their pics in the paper. Great thing you're doing involving your son in the outdoors, that has to be one important responsibilty for us as a parents.
  11. "Something to consider when buying a reel, is the after sales service support an OEM gives. Shimano is #1 in the business." I will agree with the above statement by Ken D. I needed a replacement part for a reel, contacted Shimano and received it at no cost from Customer Service, within several days. All my reels are Shimano, have lasted without a problem some for 15 years with TLC. This includes bait castng and spinning reels.
  12. Thanks Jim. Alot of good info. I keep forgetting about prior posts.
  13. Would like to know what ISA members experiences have been if using Berkley Gulp. I keep seeing/hearing good things, but my past experieence have been less than positive. Just looking for input and/or recommendations.
  14. Norm, First, let me say that you are to complimented on your thoughtfulness and act of kindness. Most commendable to say the least. I'd like to share a story and I'll be brief. Exploring deeper into and practicing beliefs of my Native American Ancestry, I have learned many lessons from the Elders and Spiritual leaders and most come back to (1) I can only be responsible for myself (2) Continue to live and conduct myself in a "good way" (3) Good things happen to those who are the givers. As negative as most of this was for you, the upside is you were still able to share a gift with the children and that's what mattered. Good people and good acts never unnoticed. When I get really upset over something like this, I remember a story a Lakota Spiritual Leader from the Rosebud told me. He said he was at a Pow Wow and recorcing some songs. He walked away left his rather expensive recorder, unattended but on and when he returned it was gone. Things like this are not suposed happen at the gatherings. I said, "Why would anyone do that, weren't you mad or upset?" He looked at me and said, " I guess whoever took it, needed much more that I did." And I agree that there are some "goofs" out there, but there are alot of good kids too. My 12 year old thought what happened was outright cruel. He met the Norm at this past Blowout and could not understand why anyone would do something that mean to someone who is so nice. Anyhow, you're a good man and good things will come your way.
  15. Mark and Norm thanks for the info appreciate it. Norm, my son really enjoyed talking with you and Bob Long at the Blowout. He said you gave him some pointers he wants to try out and hopefully can break his 3K jinx. Thanks for taking the time to share your knowledge of the river with him and hope to see on the water. Russ
