I had a guy build me some rods whose nickname here was Heaver. His first name is Lou. I lost contact with him the last couple years. Just wondering if anyone knows him and how to get in touch with him. Would appreciate any help getting in touch with him. Thanks. Ken

There is a "njheaver" but his name is Rich and he is actually in New Jersey. If this is who you are looking for, pm me for more info.

Thanks for the reply but that is not him. I know his first name is Lou and from what I could find here looks like it's been a few years since his last post. Take care and thanks again

There was a guy named Lou from Virginia Beach who I met at a power casting tournament on Hatteras. He was a very nice fellow. I know he became a custom rod builder after he got out of power casting and he was going by the nickname heaver. I can't remember his last name but he was not Luis Dasilva. I know he had been mentored in Power Casting by Bill Kennedy, one of really good power casters from the late 1980s or early 90s. I had some emails from him a long time ago (10 plus years) but I am not sure where they are. If we are talking about the same person, you can probably reach him though Bill Kennedy if you can find him. Tommy Farmer may know how to reach him.

I think the Lou I met looked like he had polynesian ancestry. He was really nice fellow.

Good luck. If you find him, let me know. I'd like to drop him a line as well.

I think I found him on FB. His name is Lewis Reyna and he is a facebook friend of Wayne Folkes.

Tom I was able to find him on face book and he helped me out. Thanks to everyone here who helped or tried to help me out. I did manage to meet two other Lou's including one who is a custom rod builder so it was all good

Tight lines all
