Absolutely great and just what I needed.
I would have liked to see a proper fishing rod though, not much fly fishing here more lures for bluewater.
Here fishing is not a hobby, it is a religion.
Actually we have 2 religions here, Fishing and Rugby Union, sometimes it is a difficult choice :D
After downloading, I became a bit concerned about my computer address being logged.
What if I want to download it on my other computer that I use in the daytime?
Cheers

Hello Wolffie...

Thanks for the comments.

Ohhh yes... we have plans for a Gone Fishing No.2 and a "proper" fishing rod was one of the models we will include (did not want to leave anyone out). :D

If you like and you can receive email on that other PC then forward it to there (or if you are using webmail just wait till you are at that PC before you download the file) and download it there. Once you have it downloaded I would make sure you save the installer someplace safe just in case you need it later.

Hope that helps...

Todd

Please do not forget boat fishing in your new model, particularly sport fishing for Marlin :D

Wolfie,

That is most certainly a "proper" rod! Anything else is just petrified snot in the form of a tube! :D

And most fly fisherman would use that 'proper' rod and reel for trout fishing, not bass! Just sayin, should have been a trout model with this one.

I do not think that road and reel would do for a 250 pound marlin though.
Maybe Todd is not a fly fisher?

I was just reminded by a young friend, that kids go fishing too and he wants something for his bedroom door that is appropriate for his age (young 13) for Christmas.

Hey All... thanks for all the replies to this project post! Have noted all of them...

Ms Wolfie, yep... I am not a fly fisherman at all but do live on the East Coast of Canada where we have a very healthy fly fishing community. One of the main rivers that flows through new Brunswick is a very popular fly fishing area. People come from all over the world to salmon fish using... you guessed it hand tied flies.

More fishing projects to come... hang tight!

Todd
