We'll all have to try to make it as accomodating as possible. Being you were the first one to respond with an actual date you should have preference. Makers, do you have an alternate date you can use this?

HFB, PM sent.
FYI, did you guys read the Wall Street Journal today? My man that runs Discount Fishing Tackle on Sante Fe Ave in Denver made the front page. A good article on Brown liners. Check it out.
Maybe a South Platte Carp or Cat fish is in store for the TGR traveling rod. I'll make sure to disinfect the rod before I hand it off.
I'm going to look for a small note book to put in the tube along with the rod. It would be nice to make a journal entry every time it's fished [/blog]
That's fine with me. So psyched to see this get off the ground.
This is going to be really fun!!!
WyoWill will you be in AK in August? Just a thought but if you are, AKPM can hand it off to me and I can hand it off to you if that works, seems like it would be the easiest smoothest option if possible, less time in the mail, more time in maggot fishing hands...
Also, if it makes August easier, I can squeeze in right before AKPM at the beginning of July and then hand it off to him, I'll just fish kings with it instead of silvers....
It is going to be interesting, the many different species this rod will be bending for. This is cool!
I don't think that would matter with this crowd. :DQuote:

Lander through next Friday.
if theres an opportune time, i can fill in between 72twenty and schwerty, or perhaps you guys wanna meet up on the north platte for a mini or im game for somewhere else as well...
I'm good for anytime but also could get some quality time with Rod while he's in the neighbor hood, save a trip to the PO with a shared day on the water with a direct hand off.Quote:

This thing is a 6 wt right? I think I'll keep it away from the Snook. Broken rod will do no one any good. I'll get a trout or Ladyfish on there at least.
HAPPY FREAKIN FUN BALLS! This is gonna be sweet. Let me know the when, where, and how. Not sure where L8apex is but I'll be between Lafayett, CO and Casper, WY for my dates. Can't wait!
Well, that did not work.

Ksyrium and adipose, I will be in both of your neighborhoods this summer, I'm sure. We will work something out.
Just wanted to quickly add how psyched I am for this!!!!
Sorry for being late to the game, you can add me to the "anytime" list. FWIW - I'll be traveling from Denver to adipose's neck of the woods next weekend. I'd have to have the rod in hand by Sunday though.
Schwerty - thanks for getting the list going.
Would it be helpful to put where we are located?
Not sure if it will make a difference, but if we can try to coordinate some of it regionally, it might help the rod get around the country a bit faster. We can then insert the "ANYTIME" category folks into the master list next to someone who they live closest to.
I added my location. If this is a stupid idea, no worries...
