But now I'm pissed cause I got a shiny stainlees reel and dang it ..that rod is only gonna look bad a$$ if it has a matte black reel sittin on it The best part about new toys is ya just hafta play with em.

I got old stuff as far as fly fishing equipment goes. Think he felt sorry for me last year. Lost alot of fish after I hooked em. The kid is a beauty to watch with a fly rod in his hand he's takin it to a level far above me. Alot time I just sit there and watch him. |
