POSTED WITH ROBERT BURTON'S PERMISSION Hi everyone, PHWFFC is an org that helps our wounded veterans through fly tying and fly fishing activities. The services have now been extended to first responders. This year PHWFFC is running a national raffle to raise funds to support its activities. The first prize is a bamboo fly rod that I made and in the process of finishing. Description: 7'9", two-piece with two identical tips, 4/5 weight, black main wraps with yellow and red tippings or trim wraps. The rod comes with a Made-in-Canada classic reel (Stamp River Reels, BC), line, sock and a wooden hexagonal tube of my own design. 2nd and 3rd prizes are described on the tickets. I just received today 50 of the 2000 tickets printed and they are available for purchase now at $10.00 per ticket. If interested, contact me at dvlmrcl@gmail.com. I am attaching a few pictures in a PDF doc to add to the description above; hopefully that works. As stated, I am in the process of applying the finish, so the masking tape will come off :-). I could not include the butt section in the pictures today as a coat of finish is drying. I will post pics of the completed rod likely by next week. Thank you FFM for allowing me to post.

You might be able to on the PHWFFC website, but not sure. I will check. I don’t want to get my PayPal account in the mix so I’ll do cash only for the 50 tickets I have.
