It was perhaps the most complicated accomplishment since I arrived back at the Battleship one day to find it full of bees, and the great news is that the Hot Torpedo stock is now in the hands of Juan, our Spanish maestro rod builder. We now have ten rods to build to catch up!
You may have noticed that I went quiet on the rod promotion? That’s because I don’t like to keep customers waiting and I knew it was going to be a complex operation. But now we are back in business!!!
I’ve revamped the decals as well. For the Tot Tortuga there will be the logo: Sexyloops Hot Tortuga one side with the flaming turtle. And on the other side the rod: length and weight and any personal name decal if required. Sleek and sexy. Classy even.
We still have the original Hot Torpedo labels for matching your current rods if you prefer. So it’s your choice. We will set the Hot Tortuga numbers back to zero. It has long been time for a logo upgrade in my opinion! Everything else is the same, same blank, same perfect fittings, same amazing build. But now back to being built into the EU.
More details to follow in the Hot Torpedo Owners Club.
I had planned to put up new videos this week. The Sexyloops fly casting video manual is 15 years old, which is a long time in the coaching world, and I plan to upload about 80 new videos over the next 12 months, really taking this section forward. The videos will be full of fly casting drills and exercises, as well as new tips, advice and cues. It’s going to be great – really!! And I’m very excited about this.
Fishing here on the lake is still very challenging. But this should all change soon as water temperatures get back to normal.
Have a great week!
Cheers, Paul
