2023: Remaining To Do List
A few things to get done before we tear the final page from the calendar. We still have a couple weeks left in the current year and why not scratch these items from the list before we head into 2024?
Gather up the broken fly rods and send them in to the manufacturer for repair. Much easier to do this today, than 2 weeks before fishing season kicks off next year. And, the return time during this period, non fishing season, is much faster. The rod companies in April, May, June are backed up with lots of last minute those in need of rod fixing anglers. Do it today! Go online, download the form, and pop your rod tube in the mail. Many manufacturers only require you send the broken portion, or some no rod returned at all! Get it done today!
Shop at your local fly shop, HEADHUNTERS FLY SHOP IN CRAIG MONTANA, for sale items, gently used demo rods, and discontinued products. Save a bundle before the ’24 season! Just give HH of Craig a call and we will save you some dough during this historical speedy time of year!
Buy a Practice Fly Rod and kick some freaking ass out there on the water in ’24. You want to make your fishing partner jealous? Make her jaw drop at your casting prowess? Alarm your fishing guide that you did, yep, you did take 10 minutes a week to catch more fish? Practice rods will help you with your fly cast. Not practicing, not improving, will just let you replay this years action. If you are comfortable with performing at the same level, skip this step.
