Sierra Nets Featured in This Week's WON

[Fishfreak911]

My cousin called me the other day, out of the blue, and asked if I would sign his edition of Western Outdoor News. I had no idea about it, but WON ran a full-page article on me and Sierra Nets. It was written by a fine writer, Jim Matthews who used to write the fishing page for the Thursday O.C. Register if you recall. This makes me proud and I wanted to share with my fly fishing friends. I think the fly fishing world has been pretty good to me. I am blessed and humbled to be able to do what I love, creating custom fishing nets, for a living. A special thanks to Copper Dropper('s wife Lacey), Benny, Stanberry, Fly Addict & Lucfish for entrusting me with creating a critical fishing accessory for you.

For those that don't know, I was laid off again just before Christmas. I am really hoping it was a blessing in disguise, because working in a large manufacturing environment in this economy has been very stressful. The good news is that since mid November, I have had pretty steady sales, and have about a two month backlog of nets to create. The wifey told me, "10 nets a month..." and I get to work for my self! Right now, I am focusing on getting ready for the show and completing the nets I have in hand.

NEWSFLASH! I mentioned on another post that I would be at the Pasadena Fly Fishing Show as an exhibitor, but I had to choose the biggest bang for my buck and decided to do Pleasanton, Ca. up in the Bay area Feb. 24-26, 2012. I am nervous but excited. It's my first ever show-Please send your good thoughts my way. I do hope to be hanging out in the Pasadena booth for the Fly fishing Club of Orange County. Please stop by and say hello.

here's a picture of the full page article in WON:

Happy New Year! Here's to success, health, and happiness for all!

Greg, many congrats on the free publicity!
I really hope it works out for you, and I hope to acquire one of your nets before you get too famous.....and I can't afford one!

My buddy at work, a bait slingin', but loveable guy, subscribes to WON. He leaves the latest editions in my mailbox at work and was I pleased to finally have a reason outside of tuna season to read it! Congrats on the wonderful article and the hardwork and passion you bring to the forum.

Greg,

How about bringing me a signed copy of the article, when you come thru the central coast, on your way to Pleasanton ? I'll frame it and put it in my studio.

Congradulations and may your business take off by leaps and bounds.

Sent you a PM.
Pete
