Dave ' 
Thank you for you remarks!
It is pretty funni though to see you post to my comment on "Steelie" warts when many other questions have risen about.. "Storm color lines..years lures were produced..special foreign orders..company history and more" ..Yet I do not remember you posting >> being so helpful to those other collectors in need?
DAVE'
YOU ARE CORRECT THEIR ARE A FEW SP'S OUT THEIR THAT WERE PAINTED FOR..AND BY STORM PAINTERS ..TO FRIENDS / GUIDES /AND A COUPLE SPECIAL INTERESTS.. I DO NOT HAVE THEM ALL..NOR DO I KNOW OF THEM ALL! If you can help out in finding or producing the colors that were run let me know plz!
I AM ONLY THE "STORM STEELIE GURU" IN CONSIDERATION that A) I HAVE BID ON NEARLY EVERY SINGLE ONE ON E-BAY for 2 PLUS YEARS! B) I HAVE ONE OF THE ONLY DEALER SAMPLE BOARDS I KNOW OF..ALTHOUGH THEY MADE A BUNCH "mine is not the only one" and could easily be made! C) I AM ALSO THE ONLY PERSON FOR OVER 2 YEARS..POSTING TO TRADE/BUY/SELL ... AND HAVE TALKED TO NEARLY EVERY TRADER ON THIS BOARD..REGARDING THEM! ...
I have cut them in half and compared them to "wee warts" I have run them in nearly every water conditons and river/stream California offers a steelhead fisherman..and have out fished all other plugs on it 5-1..
YET..HOWEVER..AND ALTHOUGH.. what I know has been told/shown to me from other WISER fellows! I WAS NO BORN GENUIS!
SO FOR QUALIFICATION PURPOSES..I WOULD HAVE TO SAY I HAVE ONE OF THE LARGEST COLLECTIONS OF NIB..RL/BL STEELIES AROUND..>> FOR SOMEONE WHOM MEANT TO COLLECT THEM<<< I HAVE NEARLY 300+ AND AM STILL BUYING/TRADING/SELLING EVERY ONE I FIND!
Anybody else have this many?? PM..or e-mail me..lets trade/chat/buy/sell!!
IN A LONG SENSE SHORT DAVE'
MY COMMENT'S REGARING A "FAST" SALE...WERE POSTED TO THOSE PEOPLE> WHOM KNOW WHO THEY ARE..FOR STARTING A FAKE POST ABOUT SELLING STEELIES'.. NO BIGGIE ON YUR POST... BUT IF SOMEONE WANTS TO LOOK FOR MY RESPONSE TO SUCH "JOKER" SALES.. I GAVE IT!... and nor a "Mark" or "Ryan" has posted to confirm the deal was even 4real! ...But i have moved on and collected more..I however had to rub it into someones side... given my comment's about the sale'...
In return to the people looking for me over comments or opinions I share...This would not be the first time.... SO Hence>> I know it was a joke on yur part David' 
wink..however let's make it clear.... IF ANYBODY HAS OR WANTS MY ADDRESS/PHONE.. I AM NOT HARD TO FIND..NOR DO I HIDE.. MOST OFF ANYBODY WHOM HAS DEALT WITH ME "GOOD OR BAD" SHOULD KNOW WHAT IM ABOUT! I DONT BEAT BUSHES..OR HIDE BEHIND EM..IM A HONEST DUDE THAT GIVES REPESCT WHERE IT IS GIVEN!

I know I for one would appreciate you posting more often when it comes to knowledgable "Storm" Historic info ... when asked by user's of the message board!!.. ALTHOUGH I KNOW THAT YOU WERE YOUNGER IN AGE WHEN MOST OF THE BUISNESS STUFF WAS GOING ON < > FROM WHAT I HEAR YOU STILL HAVE A FEW TIPS IN THE SLEEVE FOR US JUNKIES THAT CALL THIS AN ADDICTION!
Thanks Dave'...wish evryone got such response from the "True Storm Guru" eh'... we would all know a whole lot more about your family's company history and lures..than what is posted on the "main" page > which Erich has posted with his time and efforts IF YOU WERE TO CONTRIBUTE MORE OFTEN!
I was suprised to find out that you were not much invloved with this message board? Do you donate lures or money for it's upkeep and "cause" each year? Do you yourself care to collect your own familys tradition? I would be obligd to know!
>>Just some thought's from an AVID "Steelie collctor" ...thanks to all the chromers that "Steelie warts" & the "storm family buisness" made ...have put into the boat for my friends and I!
>>>>THE WIGGLE WART<<<< WHAT AN AWESOME FISH CATCHIN LURE DESIGN!!!!!...
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
TOO BAD SOLD THE MOLDS OUT TO NORMARK AND BRAD'S FOR SUCH GARBAGE FROM CHINA EH!!!! > We live and learn!
