Hi, my name is Lee and I have a fishing gear problem.

I have all of the answers, yup, no, maybe.

No problem Dominick,

I look forward to sharing tips, techniques with everyone here in the future. Merry Christmas to all!!!

Keta, Captain Mark:  I just said that about a plug without consulting the big poobah.  However, he did not complain.  Now that you got to plug your charters, now is the time to offer discounts to AT members. ;D  Gotcha, now whose your Daddy?  Dominick
Leave the gun.  Take the cannolis.

There are two things I don't like about fishing.  Getting up early in the morning and boats.  The rest of it is fun.

Hey Dom,

I believe that you received that 150M sample line. How does it feel? Alan T. called me earlier that he likes it.

Alan:  It came in the mail today.  I like the suppleness of it.  It feels like silk.  I decided to use it on my Penn International 30.  I have 80lb mono on the reel and this stuff is so thin I will use it on top of the mono.  I will test it for breaking strength before I fish with it and for overall feel when I actually fish it.  Thank you.  Dominick

Hi Alan,

Have you heard anything back from Mark?

alantani

ben talked to john at charkbait (mark was not in) and he was less than enthusiastic.  i will talk to mark myself, though i may not be able to catch up with him until after the holidays.   alan, you have a very nice product.  i am very interested in seeing the hollow weave.

Alan T and Bryan Y had some samples on 100 and 130 lbs hollow. So far, they like them. I will have some spool on 80, 100, 130 and 200 lbs hollow line coming this July. There might be few 40# hollow spool as well.
