Rod Maker (Marcelo) & reelmaker (Paul),

Because you are both at the head of what is class in what you make, it's appropriate--and
of course very seasonal--that you should collaborate in this resurrection of fine tackle.
Congratulations to you both.

Bill

Dear Paul: Your welcome my friend, you know that is also a very important rod for me. I really love to take challenges, and the one you took was the best that any of my rods live ever. I hope you like your "new rod", and we have to cross our fingers and wish that another big fresh Atlantic Salmon rise to your fly. When it happens... please, remember to put it a little more on your masterpiece Salmon reel, for sure he will help "The Golden Salmon" to complete the job. At...

I remember when this amazing story was first posted. I have to say that each time I read one of author Dana Lamb's Atlantic salmon adventures, your own comes to mind. Nice to see that it's come to a satisfying conclusion for all.

Beautiful...although I cant help but think you brought a knife to a gun fight, that is one big salmon. That picture of the fly boxes, rod and pumpkins is worthy of a magazine cover. CJ

Marcelo forgave me,,took mercy,, and restored my "Golden Salmon" to its former glory.....He sent along the last 2 pics of my restored rod....He worked his magic...I can't wait for it to be in my hands again doing what it was created to do after a brief stop at Len C's ...also a fan of this incredible craftsmanship......but first pics of the day I first lawn cast it...Then a few from the fateful day ..That rod was the best casting boo I ever had in my hands...I can still feel...
