Hey Rodbuster aka Gunsmoke,
You've a reputation to up hold and you can't break any rods trading for shrimp.....
We almost broke one loading all that beer. One of cases got away from him as I was tossing them to him. He opened his big mouth this spring and promised somebody 350 pounds of shrimp for a wedding reception. So he's been obsessed about his shrimp trading this summer.
The case hit one his prized cape fear rods that was parked in a gunnel rod holder. Luckly it hit right above the reel. He loves those cape fear rods and they are getting very hard to find as cape fear is shutting down.
Speaking of rods, I'm the one paying for the custom spinner you are making for him. I'm the one that sent you the deposit check. I trade him rods and reels for boat fuel and hunting trips. I also bought him that tuna max he shattered lifting sash weights. He told me you might be able to upgrade the standard blank to a super seeker. From what I understand those are unbreakable.
If possible, could you duplicate that order and have them ready by the third week in Oct. I've got my first head boat trip in many years planned for the last week of Oct. I'd like to have two onboard in case I bust one of them. If I break one of them I'll give Rodbuster the broken one to mount on his wall of shame where he hangs the snapped ones. If you can build two in time, I'll send you another down payment. Make them exactly the same as he ordered it. Email me at (
