Steve, is a asset to this company!! He was so very patient and took the time to explain the different reels and poles.
I have already made a second purchase and again the transaction went through Steve.
All future purchases will be though steve. I live in Washington and have to pay duty but it's well worth it. It's true you get what you pay for.
