Dan, I tried to get some close ups of the Grandt rod, but my camera skills let me down and they did not turn out. River Rat said he had a good camera and would get some pictures for you.
"Not in the clamor of the crowded streets nor in the shouts and plaudits of the throng, but within oneself lies victory or defeat."

You tried. Thanks. We'll go with River Rat for the special prize MadWags Memorial Grandt Stealth rod.

I'm still suprised I won that rod... I showed Paula and told her what happened and she was amazed.  Tim and I talked about Dave several times during the tourney and how much he would've appreciated all of the wonderful thoughts, now I'll be able to fish with Wags every time out.

Dan thanks for putting on a great event and a special thanks to Jim Grandt for the extremely generous prize.

Scott

p.s. I'll get a pic up sometime today, kinda crazy trying to get settled back into this wonderful Michigan "spring".

The fish realy didnt waste any time picking up my Nemesis Gobies so we were able to cover alot of water and catch a whole lot of fish  ;D
Go Big or Go Home!

Here's the "signature" on the  Grandt Rods Stealth and a pic with it paired with a Pflueger Patriach 9530 to match the light weight and performance.
