It was extremely stressful and I had many sleepless nights, but it was well worth the effort as my rods were very well received. I was especially surprised by the amount of interest shown in my line class 0 / 1 rods and my carbon spigot ferrules which have been a long time in the making. There was quite some interest and discussion on the <a href="http://www.fliegenfischer-forum.de/flyfishing/tradition-trifft-moderne---bambus-und-kohlefaser-vereint-t261398.html">German fly-fishing forum</a> prior to the fair thanks to a thread started by a fellow rod-maker, but from the general reaction I think a lot of skeptics have been converted. All in all it was a great experience and I most certainly look forward to participating in more fairs in the future. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
