Is Seeker rolling there own rods?

[sealskinner]

I thought Gary Loomis was making their rods in Washington? Along with Thrasher and a few others.
Can somebody set the record straight?
Thank you. I didn't want to hijack Alins thread.

I’m no expert but I do believe that is the case.

I heard Brad Loomis. I've also heard Seeker does their own. They used to anyway.
Honestly, if (Gary Loomis) North Fork Composites were doing blanks for others, including Seeker, it would explain delays in receiving blanks. I think NFC has enough on their plate without rolling for others.
And FYI, Gary is fighting Cancer.
Stick to sharing facts, not speculation.
Regardless, I guess I'll just hang onto my LB Seeker blanks and build them.

I meant Brad. Sorry if my question disturbed you.

You're cool, Mike. I'm not disturbed and I apologize if that's how it came across. Happy Thanksgiving

Not yet. I got all the guides and hypolon for it.
But I'm taking care of my 90 y/o mom now. And I stay with her to do so.
My wrapping station at home is lonely.
I'm going to make a bench for my mom's house for the wrapper to sit on tomorrow.
And hopefully by the end of next week I can jump on the Thrasher, and get it done in 1 day.

Mom is more important for sure... Happy ThanksGiving...

Brad Loomis and Jake Carse roll Seeker blanks now in Woodland. Safe and happy Thanksgiving to you and yours, Mike. Grateful for many things in lieu of this roller coaster year. Send me progress pictures of your Thrasher build if you can and I'll do the same! Cheers, brother...
