Got a new tool for everyone

Take a look, measure some rods and add some entries!

Cheers, Eric

Eric,

Bravo!

Is that rod of yours the "weightless lever" Frank is seeking?

Several of mine might suit Frank - sadly no longer with me so I can't weigh them.

Magnus,

If I knew you had that many I would have written something to import them! :D

Confirm this with me. I think I see a little discrepency in weight. It looks like several weights are 10x higher than they should be. I think this is because the decimal point was dropped out. (ie... 116.7 grams became 1167 grams) If this is correct I'll fix it.

Has to do with my data validation script.

Script corrected to allow decimal entry (admin edit works too), but the db chops the decimal off (field is set to whole integers).

I'll go through an fix those that are out tomorrow. Gotta crash tonight though. Ride gets here in 4 hours!

Bill:

do you think it's OK if someone grab the Superbob data and add it to the Sexyloop rod Table?

Grunde,

Personally, I don't see a problem. It's not copyrighted and as a "grass roots" project, everyone is simply trying to get the information out to help other anglers.
I don't know Bob, but you might ask Tom Kirkman for his opinion.

OK I'll probably just grab them and tell Tom what I did :D

The thing is that there are loads of measurements out there and it will be very good to collect them all in one place.

Great stuff Grunde - I'd credit the source if at all possible.
