Professional Pictures are being done in the next couple of weeks. The shutdown of the Yellowstone means no more guiding and I have had more time to get back to work. Looking forward to getting the website done and as mentioned previously those in vicinity to Salt Lake can check out the rods I did exclusively for Western Rivers Fly Shop.

Nicely done, Dusty. The photos are great and the site is easy to navigate. Add some testimonials and maybe a blog section with updates on products, shows you'll be attending, etc.

Very nice website & great selection of products. Congratulations! Your Western Glass 8.5' 6 weight is hands down my favorite 6 in any material and one of my favorite rods in any size/configuration.

Any plan to add more reviews or videos? Unless my searching skills are worse than I thought, I haven't found much online in that vein.

Just curious because I'd love to get a better feel for how the rods fish and how they cast line weight to line weight--especially compared to other glass rods. Everything I've seen looks really sweet, and I just want to know more.

I am starting to market just a little, have a print ad in Mountain Outlaw Magazine and a review of one of my graphite series. I have built and sold quite a bit of my Western Glass but most everything has been due to word of mouth or a few of my wholesale accts (fly shops).

Hopefully you can get down to the Clave, will have all the rods there and available to cast.

Neat web site. I love the color of the "YS Dry Fly Rods".

That’s one of the major reasons I want to come to the clave.

Maybe it's me. I can't find anything regarding the rods except for a small description of the graphite rods and what YS is short for.

There's descriptions of each rod series when you click on them in the drop down, if you click on the Our Fly Rods without letting the drop down populate it's pretty limited. I need to add more and additional links to that.

Here they are separate if your browser isn't letting them populate the drop downs.

Dusty, I followed your advice and held my finger on the bar. I felt the bump and was able to open the site in a popup by opening a new tab. It works and the site looks inviting. Problem; I would never know I'd have to keep my finger on the bar like that without you telling me. I'm not shy and was willing to contact you to find out how your site works. My fear for you is there'll be more people like me who won't figure that out. They'll simply figure there's a site issue and go browse elsewhere. It's possible it's my phone, the Google Pixel 2. It's not "mainstream" like a Samsung Galaxy or iPhone? Perhaps I'm not heavy handed enough. The bar opens the second I touch it. It's moving me to a new screen. I wouldn't know I missed a step. There's no way I would've known to hold my finger on the bar until I felt my phone bump. You may want to add a note.
PS, I wouldn't have bothered to write all this if I didn't think your rods weren't worth a second look. Maybe the 865 when my tax return arrives?

Dusty, couple weeks ago I make a enquiry via the website but it must have been missed somehow. Do you sell your rod blanks? As much I admire the work on your finished fly rods I really don't care to spend almost $1000 cdn on what will be used essentially as a multi fly chironomid rod for stillwater. I like to carry 3-4 rods on a pontoon and they tend to get beat around no matter how careful you try to be. Thanks
