Ya know the rod that has been on TV with the trigger that shoots your lure out?something along those lines that could launch a cig a couple hundred feet with a hard wind in your face.

[size=12pt]Sorry Wilson, I guess I quit readin’ at dream rod!
On the serious side; I would consult with our resident expert rod builders about a custom fishing rod.
OK, I’m done with serious for the day.

A true old school rod. Probably a roddy or old brown fenwick with mildrum guides and a plain fuji reelseat. The real kicker would be having it built by the one builder that I look up to and respect more than any of the others. He has helped me more than any other person in learning the skills, and for that I am extremely thankful.

Wilson,thanks for posting this on the day we close early.Instead of working on things that can wait till tomorrow,I hung around a little while, glued up and laid out a blank I've been wanting to build.

there is a old thread from beach fisherman using a real small tank with compressed air to shoot there bait out past the second sand bar......I saved it somewhere.....the small compressor ran off 12volt lawn mower battery .....kinda like a potato launcher
