What ever it is made of, it is not of ferrous metal. What is it?

With this statement, I take it they also make a magnetic one.

I've always wanted to take up fly fishing, but gave that up years ago when my grandparens sold the ranch on the river.

Your hood is fiberglass? Aftermarket? Why no hood-pins then?

I thought all allroads had aluminum hoods.

Wow, I really don't care what the hood is made out of. I just know the magnetic mounts didn't stick. Now I'm happy.
