Earlier this year I purchased from Chris a Daiwa Kiyose 30SF rod. On its maiden fishing outing, I was not paying attention and when collapsing the rod I broke the 2nd section. I contacted Chris that night and by and ordered a replacement. By weeks end and replacement part received, I was back on the river fishing. I can say by personal experience, the availability of replacement parts are not an issue when ordering thru Chris and I plan on ordering from Chris in the future.

As age slows my pace, I will become more like the heron.
We've all had situations where seriously chewed up flies kept catching fish after fish after fish. It is no sin to tie flies that come off the vise looking seriously chewed up.
The hooks are sharp.
The coffee's hot.
The fish are slippery when wet.
