New Rod Build
Like stated above check out Mudhole. Also maybe look into building it on your own? It's not that difficult at all and quite rewarding when finished. I just finished a 7'6" 5wt fly rod yesterday and I can't wait to throw some poppers with it this summer. Roby

Abu Garcia Veritas Cranking Rod??
I remember an older post when they first came out and a guy had a Shimano Caenan on his. I'm pretty sure all other reels will work fine, maybe not as good as the winch but should be fine. Just as 614 Bass said it wouldn't have been very smart for Abu to make it were you have to buy a $200 reel and no others would work. Roby

Get a Grip
Why do you feel you need sponsorship to fish tournaments? It's not a necessity but boy when it comes to paying for tournaments a couple sponsors would be very nice. For example say your interested in being a co angler in FLW tour it costs 700 dollars to enter and thats not including lodging, gas and all the other little goodies you have to pay for. Now this is just my 2 cents but im pretty sure thats why Nate was looking for a few sponsors last year. But what the hell do i know

A couple cedar cranks
I get it from Mudhole.com. It's pretty cheap in the bigger sizes; you can get 32 ounces for $45 and that will last for a long time. I've found it necessary to use U-40 Color Lock before top-coating with U-40 LS Supreme medium build. You will get fish eyes with LS Supreme medium build unless you use Color Lock first. I found that out the hard way... :-X The only other downside to using LS Supreme is that it takes 24 hours to dry tack-free, and up to a week to fully cure. It cures faster at warmer temperatures, but it still takes five days to reach full strength. Ok i may have to look into that. Thanks for the info Roby
