I Just wanted to post a "thanks" to RW

I pm'd him requesting feedback for a rod hunt I've been on. I solicited a last resort opinion before I went to the web to appease my monkey.

I am looking to expand my versatility and need a rod that covers unfamiliar tactics so I really have no idea what I'm looking for.

After some questions and explaining, RW told me to stop my hunt because he had a rod collecting dust that would be perfect! Well, those of you that know me, know I'm a bit of a showboat so I'm thinking,"wow, what a nice gesture but do I really want somthing someone else doesn't even use?"

Then RW started describing what he had and my ears perked.

RW is sending me,....no,...has ALREADY sent me, a Fenwick 7'9" Techna AV rod!! This is an im8, titanium guide, $250 rod!!

Wait, it gets better!

He also PM'd me back and told me he is sending me the reel too as he has no need for it. The rod was used for 1/2 an hour and landed 1 25lb striper but the fishing he does, really doesn't warrent this rod, so it sits.

The terms of this transaction are as follows

1. Use it, learn it, If it's what you wanted, send me $100

2. If not, Give it back when we meet somewhere for an excursion. (Varner?)

What A deal, and what a patron of the sport!

So, after his generosity helping out in the ground pounding for SENKO77 and his family, his relentless, committed insight and dedication to BR and family, and this latest act of kindness, I say hats off and raise your mugs....

i have to say its rare these days to find compassionate people and those who contribute so much and seek little or nothing in return. we are lucky that this forum has many of these people and Roadwarrior is one of them. to you RW, i salute you and your big heart!

Roadwarrior sent me some tubes to try that are his best color and although I didn't get to give them a fair shake last year I'm going to give them a workout on Lake Erie smallies this year. Bottom line? Yes, the man is a great guy. Hats off to the ROADWARRIOR! ;D
