Hey guys hope everyone is keeping their sanity with the horrendous weather we are having. This winter has been an extremely long one for me. I haven't been on the water since mid September so it is making me that much more impatient for spring's arrival.

Although I haven't been fishing at all I have been super busy getting my new rod building workshop up and running. I still have a couple projects to finish up, but I have finally resumed production and thebshop is open for business. The new shop is centrally located at 972 Broad Street in Downtown Newark NJ, right next to the Federal Building and just a few minute walk from the Court House and Prudential Center. The new shop has a much better layout which will increase production capacity, without sacrificing quality. As always all rods are built by me personally from start to finish.

Going forward all customer consultations will be done at the shop and all orders must be picked up on site or a delivery or shipping and handling charge will be added to the order. Hours are by appointment Monday-Friday 8am-8pm, Saturday and Sunday 10am-4pm, unless I am out field testing ;-). If you would like to swing by without an appointment please call ahead to ensure I will be available.

With the new location I am going to try and keep more inventory for customers to check out. This includes blanks for everything from trout to giant tuna and marlin from Seeker, United Composites-USA, Black Hole, Saltywater Tackle, Temple Reef, Hanta, among others. Also for you tilefish guys I have a couple new blanks that are light weight with tons of power made in the good old USA. These will also double as killer party boat tuna jig sticks.

Used to work in Newark. Is that the old Stationary- Stamp store on Broad Street?
