Hello - My name is Tim - I know some of you from grassart (which is how I ended up here) and am looking forward to meeting some others. Haven't posted much of anything yet - but I'm hoping to contribute. I'm an amateur bamboo rodmaker - working on rods 5 and 6 now - but I've spent so much of my free time in the shop lately I haven't had much time for fishing. Thats not so bad though - I'm actually starting to think I enjoy rod making as much as rod using (i.e fishing). Either way, thanks for inviting me aboard.
