Quick courtesy post to say hello to the forum members, joined today and looking forward to contributing to your wonderful community.
My name is Marty and i live in Monmouthshire. After dropping out of the corporate "normal" job market a year ago I decided to follow a long time ambition and turn my 30yr hobby of building custom fishing rods into a business to support myself and my family. Its hard going at the moment but i'm now happy and poor instead of well off and suicidal!
After getting involved on the rod design side with a couple of really rather nice kayak anglers I now have my eyes set on joining you all afloat, and hope to acquire enough information and kit soon to be able to contribute to the forum.
Apologies in advance for the same numpty questions you've all seen a hundred times before!
Marty.

Glad you made it Marty, Lads just to add a little to this I have a prototype kayak rod that Marty has made. It is a thing of beauty as well as a quality rod completely design for me even down to matching my Quantum EXO reel. I will shortly be posting my initial observations along with some photos. On top of all this he is a rearly nice guy and knowledgable angler. Terry
