This is a funny pic to me, but also a very important one, to me anyway. These are the last two I needed to complete the set, and are two of three hardest to get in good shape, the other being 10/0. My 10/0 came from Daron a few months back, and I won't get into the specifics but he did me a suoer-solid facilitating the 16/0 (it was Dan's previously) whle I was out of town and he knew I was hunting one. Top shelf dude all the way around. Thanks my brother. And thanks to the wife, who got 16/0 for me as a birthday present.

Boats knew I needed the 1/0 to finish the set, and stumbled on it literally a couple days after I got the 16/0....all in birthday week. Never thought I would have the whole set.

Now the issue is, I have enough spares that I'm halfway to a second set....this doesn't really end does it...

John,
You've been doing this for awhile, so you should know by now there is no way out! Of course you have to now work on a second set.....would you ever go fishing without a back up reel?? NO! You may want to check k out the pic I posted of a street sign in the " Ohana, it's a family thing" section.....it's pretty clear...there is "no outlet"😁

Mo, the braces you just sent, after I got address correct, are for the 16/0. Will probably put on tonight.

Glad to help :)
No worries...not the first address issue and surely won't be the last.
