An Appreciation

Post by HillbillyKen »

I would like to acknowledge my gratitude to Bill Sonnett, from whom I just received a package of fine vintage braided fishing lines. I'm a novice who knew not what to spool my reels with nor where to obtain the product, Bill and others offered good advice and Bill went further to actually send me these items free of charge. It's an honor to be the total stranger who was gifted in this way, and this group is a refreshing and inspirational deviation from the typical social media groups I participate in. Thank you Bill.

I was very close to not renewing membership after many years. Not nearly as active as once was. Over the years I have made many friends in the organization, many whom I have never met in person/ Many I have. It was these friendships that caused me to renew. Great bunch of folks.

Jonathan is right. So is Matt. Bill Sonnett personifies ORCA. He is one of the best - knowledgeable, an expert and a gentleman.
