Title: catalog pic

My photo of this NP taken two years ago near Pickerel Narrows made it into The Sportsman's Guide catalog....so if you get the catalog and think it looks familiar...it's me.

Very cool!
I'm a regular customer and had seen that pic, marveled at the huge NP, but never made the connection.
I hope you got a nice added discount for them using your pic. ;) ;D ;D
That company has grown leaps and bounds sense I first started getting their catalog years ago.

I'm getting a $25 gift card and some promotional items. I'm a fairly regular customer also. Most of the time I'm satisfied with my purchase, but the quality of some of their merch is a little inferior.

I know what you mean about some of their stuff being inferior or at least not as they advertise it. I buy a lot of surplus military stuff than I'm familiar with. I also do some on-line research to see what the armed forces members currently on duty have to say.
One thing about US Military surplus, because they have deep pockets thanks to us taxpayers, they get good stuff and it has to pass rigorous filed tests before the government gives the contract out.

The same for British and most European stuff. When it comes to the Chinese though, your never sure how good it is. :-/
