Vedavoo ARC Plier Pack @ IFTD/iCAST

Almost a year ago, good friend Scott Hunter (owner and founder of Vedavoo) and I had a phone conversation to catch up and check in. During the conversation, Scott and I got into details of new products. I had a few floating in my mind that I shoved his way and of course, being the innovative and industry-changing professional he is, he already had them on the drawing board and in the prototype stages. But, there was one sleeper that I snuck in that was not amongst the lineup...what is now the Vedavoo ARC Plier Pack. We bounced ideas and specs back in forth over the course of a few months with Scott leading the way with his knowledge of textiles and design and me contributing with my simple vision.





Boom, a few months later, at The Fly Fishing Show in Somerset, NJ I had the finished product in hand...and it was beyond what I expected, a perfected version of my vision. Heres the post I put up about the new pack post-show.

Here are some specs and details on the pack...

Jumping forward to present day...the Vedavoo ARC Plier Pack is currently entered into the "New Product Showcase" at IFTD/iCAST as your reading this post. I spoke with Scott briefly two nights ago and he informed me of this. I couldn't express more gratitude to Scott for not only making my vision come true and moving forward with this collaboration...but also in being such a great friend and reflection of the type of people that drive this industry forward.

Be sure to check out the brand new Vedavoo site and give them a follow and like on their Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram pages.

Thank you Scott.
