Good news,
John A.K.A IMX1021 donated one of a new high quality custom plug rod he made to our board.
The rod is a 1 piece rainshadow cherry blank. It is a IP963 8-14 lb. Med/light diamond wrap blue metallic with rose border. This custom rod is valued at $140.00. He is donating it to help fund a board upgrade. Now that's a nice guy.
So who gets it? Who ever wants it. We are going to action it off to the highest bidder. The auction will be open until [glow=red,2,300]8:00 p.m Friday, January 16th[/glow]. The winner will send me cash or a check and the rod will be sent, or delivered to them. Proceeds of the sale will be put in the board fund for ungrades.
I guess I will start the bidding at $40.00

Plug rod, I.E casting. Its a great rod for pulling plugs in a drift boat. I also know some guides that use them in there sleds in the Columbia and Willamette for Chinook.
