Time and money well spent.

I had a great time at the Advanced Rod Building Seminar. It was nice meeting others with the same interests and also meeting others in person that I’ve had online contact with. There are nuggets of information for everyone no matter what your experience level is. Mudhole was a great host and made sure everyone was enjoying themselves. I plan to do it again in the future.
