Larry,
I have been thorougly pleased with the TLJ Emerger blanks, both 10 wt & 7 wt.
Just got back from fishing the Kanektok and Arolik rivers in AK with the completed rods
and results were excellent.
I landed numerous Kings and large Chums on the 10 wt and some nice Rainbows & Grayling on
the 7 wt. I even had a couple of the guides try casting the rods and they were impressed
with the power to throw long lines.
I plan to build the TLJ Emerger 7' 9" 5 wt for trout here in OR.
What are the chances of Terry Johnson making a 6 or 7 wt spey rod blank with similar
action?  I would be willing to give it a go for steelhead on the Deschutes.

Hi Larry,
I received my TL Johnson 7 wt Rod later than expected but you more than made up for it with your customer service.  The T shirt and hat were unexpected and very nice.  I cannot wait to try the rod on my upcoming trip to the Tongariro River.
Every business has issues but the way you deal with them says a lot about the person behind the company. I would definitely recommend your products to anyone because you take care of your customers.
Best regards,
Ed Pysa

I happened to come across FlyFishingCrazy.com while looking for an Elk Horn 3 wt. fly fishing rod to take backpacking.  I initially ordered a 4-piece rod, but realized when it arrived it was too long for my pack and asked if I could exchange it for a 5-piece rod.  I couldn't be happier with the new rod - it is beautiful and will be perfect for camping.  But what pleases me most is the unbelievable customer service!  After one puchase I am a customer for life.

Larry,

...when you called thursday afternoon, i had not recieved the print and was getting frantic! But of course, when you worry the most, it always comes the next day.  It arrived early Friday morning in perfect condition and was even more beautifull than I could have imagined. I finally checked my voicemail on saturday afternoon and thought to myself I'd write ya a note that evening, but got busy.  Once again, sorry for the delayed response.  But I am most pleased with my purchase, and of course with all of your help.  As it turned out, number five in the series, actually arrived to me numbered six out of a hundred and fifty.  My husband really thought he was getting the water bottle with Derek's work on it, but he couldn't stop smiling after he opened it.  Quite honestly, probably the best v-day/anniversary gift he's ever recieved, and the best money spent.  He was also very keen on the t-shirt and in fact put it on immediately, thank you again for that.  Larry, I cannot thank you enough, my husband is very happy, has found he loves your website, tells everyone about it and d erek's artwork, and I of course "Am the best damn wife you could ask for!"  We will be back to make more artwork purchases through your site, and knowing my fishing husband, probably many more! He's already checking out reels and poles!
 
Once again, my sincerest thank you's!
 
Gratefully,
Kaycee Johnsen

Hey Larry,
Got the rod on Saturday!  Everything looks good and I just wanted to thank you for your customer service.  I appreciate that and will pass your name and such off to my friends so they can order from you in the future. 

Thanks again!

Larry,
Just wanted to take a moment to commend you on both your service and product line (and prices!). It was a pleasure to do business with you and the T.L. Johnson fly rod is an unbelievable value - I feel fortunate to have one of his rods. I look forward to doing more business with your company in the future.

Regards,

ELKHORN:
I was in Denver CO at the Sportsman show looking for a 3wt Scott or T&T. I cast both company's rods and they were close to what I wanted but the price was out of line. As I came off the casting platform a gentleman from Elkhorn asked me if I liked what I had been casting. I told him yes. He asked what weight I was looking at and asked me to cast one of his rods. I did and purchased a 3wt on the spot. I have added a 5wt since then and plan to add a 4wt in the near future. My Elkhorns are my best rods.
