Looking at their site and chatting with the current operator it looks like the only association Bo has with this shop is posting various articles under "Bo's tips", and it doesn't look like that's been updated in quite some time. Nothing on the site has been updated in quite some time. The articles themselves don't have posting dates so no way to know when they were actually posted. Several comments/questions to the articles dating from 2016 but no answers from the site to the comments/questions. John Zimmerman (current operator) did answer my email request about the site's activity. He confirmed they're still in business and operating guide services, rod building, and hand tied fly sales. The site is not very well set up. No libraries, tabs, pictures, detailed pricing, etc. at all. Looks like they do everything with email, which is very inefficient for an online sales service. They must have lots of loyal and local customers and very good word of mouth advertisement to stay in business like that.
I fish NC occasionally. I asked John if they still have a store front. Waiting to hear back. If they do I might have to make a trip in when I'm in the area. Sounds like they make some really nice custom bamboo rods. Might have to check them out.
