Sweet Sixteen

This week one of our rod builds was delayed by 1 degrees.  When Andy the Redneck/Perfectionist positioned the name decal it was 1 degrees off straight. Andy said no one else could possibly have noticed it but he could and he couldn’t handle it. It was causing him sleepless nights and me too, because I was getting many messages about it also.  So off it came. Second one on and the same thing happened again! And so that one came off too! These decals we have printed for us are sticky-backed, not waterslides. I’ve ordered 7 new personal name decals for 3 rods. I hope that this will be enough!

We are looking at a sexy printer for waterslides and testing labels from this printer, which if successful will speed up this part of the process. And will also allow for minor alignment adjustments!

It turns out that Andy and I are the perfect fit! Nothing goes out that he is not completely enthralled by, and, as you know, it can take me ten years to finalise a blank in the first place! Between us it’s a miracle that we can produce any Sexyloops rods at all!

But this is what we want. We want to make the best rods possible so that you can beat them up! You’ve seen my rods; you know how hard I fish them!! Sexyloops rods should start out by looking absolutely stunning. And then decades later, look like they have been to Hell and back many times over. Perfect!

This Tornado 6 here shipped off to Pennsylvania.  Talking of which I haven’t cast with the owner yet. So I must sort that out!! I meet all owners for a Zoom casting session where we can cover anything you/they want, chat fly fishing and put the world straight.
