That's a beauty Jon,
The colors make the marbling look like some kind of aquatic vegetation. I haven't seen that pattern above the first guide done by you before. What's it called.
And Ben, I don't see your name on the 2016 Alan Tani SoA list. WT H?

unfortunately, ben's wife signed them up for a romantic trip to machu pichu at the same time. that's why we're looking at a trip to puerta vallarta. we still need one more guy.

Alan, Are you & Ben looking for one more guy for a romantic trip to PV? Or is his wife going or what? Of course I'm busy that week, but I could check with Joe P.

Another beautiful wall hanger there Jon. Looking good as usual. I may have to build me an Ulua stick if I am going to spend a lot of time in HI.

Ben would have to do it as he picked up the rod a while back.

I'll throw the reel on it and try to get a pic up tomorrow.
I am photographically challenged though.
