Mate that is "sick" in the nicest way. I really like the colours and the whole package. Where did you get your skeleton bone fish?

Cheers
Mark

Mark,
I think it was Lincraft.
Same for the skull charms.
I sneak in there under cover sometimes

Owen....

Mark the skeleton bone fish I got from the fred hall show. These where $30 each not 10 for $5 so he may sneak around at lincraft but he sure did not pick them up there that is for sure.
They where hand made by a local to CA and I am not sure but Doc might remember who this person was. If they where cheaper I would have bought a bucket load of them to bring home as he had some beautiful pieces.

Thanks Sandy,

The bones fish look great and would look pretty good in one of the Matagi butt caps with a couple of layers of epoxy over the top. I really can't be critical of Owen for going into Lindcraft! My wife hates it when I do similar things looking for new polyester threads to try. She think I have a problem!

On a different note, I haven't had the chance to pass on my congratulations to Owen for winning one of the months on the new Fishingphotos.net Calendar for 2010. It's great to see Aussie Rodbuilders taking it to the rest of the world.

Hope you both have a great Christmas and New Year

Best Regards
Mark

Thanks mate.
I actually don't know which rod was picked.
I suppose I'll have to buy a copy.
The gaff blanks were purchased on the gift certificate I won.

I believe you picked up prize too?
Sorry mate, but you're the ugliest miss July I ever saw

[Mark Fisher]

Owen,

The rod of yours that they chose was the one with the snapper skin leather grip on it. Great work of art! Just to let you know, you are Miss October. From the photos in the calendar, I still have a bigger rod than you! LOL.
