Good deal.  If you get it in by Wednesday I can stop by on my way in from work and set it up over at South Holston this weekend if I pack my extra rod. If not, I will just pick it up the following week.

By the way Burley, stupid me decided to semi follow your advice.  I bought some Pline, but the Evolution and I'm not too impressed with it.   Now, if I can squirrel away enough money for one of them orange sticks!
