We have moved again...needed to be closer to drs. We are now in Otis Orchards, WA...15 miles from Spokane and 15 miles from CdA. Perfect location for us! Close to everything we want and need but still surrounded by beautiful mountains. Everyone is so polite and friendly here...need to finish getting Black Dog set up but we should be back making custom fishing rods soon! Gizzie loves our big yard though he still needs a fenced area.

Phone number and emails are the same for Black Dog Custom Rods.

Just finished my first custom rod that I made with guidance from my expert husband. Not bad for my very first. You can tell from this one that my line of rods is not going to be your typical colors (this one is a 5'4" purple fiberglass spinning rod with gold metallic wraps).

Since the $7.99 charge is coming, I do not give permission to Facebook to charge $7.99 a month to my account, also, all of my pictures are property of myself and not Facebook!
So now they are doing it, we just saw on Channel 13 News, that Facebook will be charging all users starting Monday. You can do an "opt-out" by posting the above. Hold your fingers over and copy. Bye Bye ads

For those in the Wilbur, WA area, come join us at the Wilbur Chamber of Commerce banquet on January 19th at 5:30 at the Wilbur Community Center. Check out their page for ticket information. Black Dog will be conducting its drawing for one of our rods – all proceeds from this drawing will go to the local Wilbur Food Pantry. We had $201 donated last year – let’s beat that number this year!
