Question regarding Summers Wait List |
Lead | ||
|
I've been on Bob Summers wait list for a new rod for five years now and am just trying to figure out how close to the top of the list I may be. I hate to
inconvenience Bob so if anyone has been on the list longer I would appreciate knowing your approximate wait time.
Thanks. JB |

Your closer than me. I have been on the list for only 4 years, a relatively short period of time. Will continue the wait till one bright day when I hear from
Bob S.

I dont recall but i think 6+ year i have been waiting, i called bob he would not tell me when the two rods i ordered are coming, i think because i sold a rod
i got from him and the new owner showed it to him he took me off the list but i dont know for sure, i guess that was a mistake selling that rod but i was
pretty poor back then and needed the cash.

Twenty eight years now and holding. Good news is, for my other rod, I think I'm just about to the top of Pinky's list....

Thanks for the input. I guess I've got at least another year, maybe more. On another note, has anyone received a rod lately? Just curious as to what
sort of wait time the most recent recipients had.
Thanks. JB |

a dt 4wt flawlessly!! |

At least you guys got on the list. I've been waiting for four years for him to return my email. I guess I'm on some list to get on the list. Or maybe
not.

Bob's not a fan of emails, but you need to call and talk to him every once and awhile just to let him know who you are...We've known Bob since we met
him at the Somerset NJ show back in the early 90's...it doesn't hurt to buy a few rod raffles for his beloved Boardman River!!
