A few photos from yesterday’s Matt Light Celebrity Shootout.
My booth with Tom Lee , my daughter Jenny didn’t want to be in the picture 😂.
I think I may have found my next fishing vehicle. A few photos of the rods that I donated and what the final bids were.
Heavy weight rods don’t seem to do very well at the auctions.
We had a great time and met a lot of wonderful people

A couple of rods that I built for this years Matt Light CelebrityShootout auction.

Rod #1
A 9’ 8 weight Diamondback Aeroflex blank- thank you Diamondback Fly Rods for the donated blank! Struble reel seat and custom cork complete this build.

Rod #2
A 6’6” medium fast blank with a spalted maple reel seat and a stacked birch bark grip make this a perfect small stream rod.

This past week, I was fortunate enough to wrap a Ron Scott quad bamboo rod. If you don’t know what a quad rod is, it is a bamboo rod with only four sides. This 7’ two piece two tip 4 weight has 74 wraps on it. This rod is going to be entered in the Catskill Fly fishing museum gathering in New York the second week in September. I wish I could go to this gathering but unfortunately, I have other plans. Good luck to Ron Scott and Butch LaVallee.
