Steeldrifter 0 Report post Posted May 19, 2020 I have an extended fishing trip coming up next month so I have been working hard in the shop lately to get all caught up on orders before the trip gets here. This one just finished up is a 9' 8wt fresh out of the drying cabinet and ready to head to its new owner. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
