Marty, you do walk some very beautiful spots - many thanks for sharing - those images will definitely go into replay mode during my winter work-meetings. The
recent Granger images ( yours and Telecasters.jeffsbear's) especially struck me also - I remember well the shape of the 7030 grip and that clean reel seat
design as you captured them - the images were very pleasing.
I, too, get a little antsy when the hiker or car pulls along and chants," Any luck?" Fortunately, I intentionally avoid the polished look (not hard), no vest and such, and I answer, "Nope, just a nice walk in the woods. Not much in here." The best answer so far was from a fellow who was hiking with his family," Yeah, sure, sure, that's a pretty nice walking stick - Heddon, right?"
I remember a post on this forum from a stalker who favored the smallest eastern cricks and claimed that he liked the shortest multi-piece rods - he'd leave a case on entry and leave only with a supposed "walking support" as he hiked out. Incognito was a joy for him - sometimes all this company here will make you that way.
