when the website tallys up total number of visits, a non-registered guest counts as only one visit, even if there are a thousand. what is interesting is the number of page views. it averages 1700 a day. that does not mean that there are 1700 different people dropping in every day. if each member or guest clicks on 5 different pages, that counts as 5 page views. no matter, you guys are spending way too much time here. get out and go fish. um, and thanks! alan ;D

You have a great site, Alan!!!
this site is addicting thanks alan cant wait to open my next reel. this site came along at the right time. im retired on disabillty and this is my therepy lol
Thanks Alan!!! for giving us such a great site!!!
Having all this info on one site is a great idea... So much easier than trawling through loads of sites trying to find new info.
Keep it up Alan!
Great site! Good info.
Thanks and congrats!!
the best site alan!!!!!
what can we say Alan you know we love your site. after all it was you who inspired me to start working on my own reels ;D
october broke 72,000. november is on a similar pace. i've had to leave the place on autopilot several times for days at a time. my mother in law is 86 and in very fragile health, my father in law is 91 and can barely walk, the wife has a bad cold and the kids have been healthy but running me ragged with stuff at school. then there is still my own full time job at the local poison control center, which may shut down because of the california state budget mess. that could really put a crimp in things because the wife was layed off last january and is still unemployed. it's like that old curse, "may you live in interesting times.....".
i've had a few friends say "well, you could fix reels full time!" anyone that thinks you can make a living at this is in for a rude awakening. anyway, this website is already paid for for the next 9 years. i am determined to leave it free of advertising and sponsorship. remember, i'm a pharmacist. i can go work anywhere. ;D
Alan -
Thanks for starting this excellent website and congratulations. I will say that you were the inspiration for me to become better at maintaining my own reels, of course kayak fishing was the other reason :D. I have a few questions about my Avet SX 6/4 which I will post when I have pictures. I just finished rebuilding my Newell S338-5 using your tutorial and it turned out great.
Thanks! Scott
Alan,
you family is in my prayers as always!
Alan,
like the old saying goes " you can't keep a good man down ". hang in there. we will keep praying for you and your family. :) :) :)
i stayed overnight with the old man. early this morning i woke up to a "clunk" and found that he had slipped out of bed. i got him back in and in 60 seconds he was snoring away. wish i could do that!
all things considered, our situation could be far worse! my older daughter had her final marching band competition and the band did great! my younger daughter is on the middle school volleyball team and they are "6 and 0!" the wive has a job interview at the end of this week. hopefully her vertigo will be gone by then. as for me, i've got two dozen boxes with reels to work on. the sooner i knock these out, the happier i'll be.
like i said, things could be far worse!
