THE LINE WILL BE OUT THIS WINTER/SPRING AND I WILL BE AT ALL OF THE SHOW'S AND OTHER PROMOTIONAL EVENT'S....I GREATLY APPRECIATE ALL THE SUPPORT THAT THE BFT BOARD HAS GIVEN ME THUS FAR AND I HOPE TO CONTINUE TO MAKE YOU GREAT KOKANEE PRODUCT'S IN THE FUTURE.
MANY OF YOU HAVE BECOME GOOD FRIEND'S AND I AM EXCITED FOR WHAT THE FUTURE HOLD'S. I KNOW SHASTA WILL CONTINUE TO DO WELL AND I WISH THEM THE BEST IN THE FUTURE.

[cool][#0000ff]Add my personal best wishes to those of the others. I only met you briefly at the Sportsmans' seminar, but I have followed your reports and am thoroughly convinced that you know your stuff.[/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]Let us know when you get set up. Hopefully you can get a website going, with pics and all that good stuff. I'm sure that you have a good group of BFT followers who can help you get well launched. After that you have the experience and marketing skills to make it happen.[/#0000ff]

I have seen a handful of the upcoming items and can assure you they will be awesome. I have watched as Jared has consulted and searched for companies to produce some of the products. He has never skimped on quality and has even turned down some companies because their quality wasn't up to par even though he could have saved a bundle of money. Heads up anyone that loves to fish for kokanee. This new stuff will set a new standard.
Good luck on your endeavor and you know where to find me if you need to.

Jared, good to see you at the Gorge. I am looking forward to the gear you are getting out. Ended up with about 30 macs over two mornings out there, biggest was 12 lbs - so a lot of dinks. Give me a shout this week, you've got my number.
