Sorry to have been so out of touch on the blog. There have been a number of things happening.

Recently, we had a guest come to our little operation in Woodland, Washington. Takeshi Horiguchi took a 12 hour flight from Nagano, Japan to see us. We’ll post some photos of the fishing we did over the next three days, but the highlight of his trip?

I know it should not be ranked but the most exciting moment I had in this trip was, 1st conversation with the legend Gary…

Glad you enjoyed the trip Takeshi.

Hopefully in the near future he will be the one supplying Japan with America’s best rod blanks!
