With this thread, I am making a serious and diligent effort to get you banned from this BBS permanently. I have considered how best to do it. And then thought it over and over again. This is how I decided to proceed. Whether I succeed or not, your permanent banishment is the purpose and the goal I am pursuing in this thread.
You got it right- Ed is a true master baiter, whether he is holding his pole or his rod- (Fenwick, Berkley, Wright & McGill) etc. As a former collector of good quality but fishable split cane fly rods (Payne, pre-fire Leonards, Stoner-era R.L. Winstons and Grangers) I always cringed when some other fly fisherman on the same stretch of the AuSable would ask- "Hey, what kinda wooden fish pole you usin', buddy?""-that being said, remember thast Ed's best gun customer is Mr. John Hoff, but as with JFK, he is usually known as Jack rather than John. What's in a name? Everything--
