Hello!! I know it's been a while but here I am back. I've been selling rods and kits like crazy!!! 115 rods so far this year!! I finely got my great little reels in. I'm not carrying the little TFO reels now. These are much better and quiet and SMOOTH!! 6 roller ball bearings and sealed drag! Doesn't get much better than this one!! It weight is about 2.5 oz!! 2 5/8" across. LOVE IT!!!! I call it RDP1. You will love it!!

Thank you!!!

Good morning world!!! It's a beautiful morning here in Chesapeake MO. I sat out on the front porch in the swing and soaked it all in!!  God is all around me!! I just have to open up my eyes and soul and realize he just loves me!!!!

I've had the best and busiest years so far!! I've sold over 60 rods so far this year! Thank you everyone for being patient and kind to me. I've struggled to get orders filled but getting there. I've been shipping rods all over the world again! Brazil, Italy, Europe, Japan and Australia!! It's so much fun to email back and forth with you all!!!

I got tired of my thread being scattered all over the place and built a rack last night. I didn't think big enough. I might have to build another one.

Thank you everyone and Thank you Lord for everything you have blessed me with. Even my problems bring blessings if you learn from them they will make you stronger and see God clearer!!!

Hello everyone!! 2012 was another great year!! Lot's of RDPflyrods hitting the waters around this world. I can't think of any better hobby in the world that building fly rods!! My blanks have been selling really well and (knock on wood) I've not had any problems with the blanks breaking at all. I've been blessed with a great manufacture that cares about quality products!! The 0wts are selling well already and what a great blank it is! I would like to thank everyone of my new friends for trusting me with building them a fly rod. I'll never forget the trust and friendship that everyone has shown me. I'm really looking forward to 2013!!! I've had a few rods that took me a while to ship and I'll try and do better this year. My three girls have been really active this year in school and they will always come first so if I'm late shipping please forgive me. Someday Lord willing I would love to make building fly rods my full time job/fun. Thank you all!!!
