actually I have heard on very good authority (some drunk indian on the reservation just outside town) that the new Rockbasses are all done and ready to go. The truth is (coming from the drunk Indian who was told this info by his spirit guide after a night of fire water and peote) HPW has all the new RockBasses stashed in his attic and is just letting the excitement build until everybody is about to go out of thier minds with anticipation, then he will pull them out and put them on the market. When I asked my drunken Indian friend (who by the way, I only had to pay a 6 pack of cheap beer and a pack of non-filtered cigaretes for the information) if the new RockBass was as good as everyone says it is, he told me, "Just filet them real thin, and pan fry them in a pan with a little butter and garlic, and they are the best bass out there; much better than big-mouth bass."
So there you have it folks, the true story about the new RockBass.
