If you lend someone $20 and never see that person again, it was probably worth it.

Speaking of fly rods....I just picked up a perfect FF856 Fenwick to feed my rod/reel addiction. It's the same model as my very first fly rod. It's early 70's vintage and looks to never have been used. I was happy to replace the one I fished to death long ago. The gills are in trouble Sunday Morning :w00t:

I also acquired a very nice South Bend Oren-O-Matic 1140-d from the 50's for the South Bend collection. I only need 4 more of the "Red Reels" to complete the series.

And I thought my jig collection was a problem :-\

Don't get me started :nono:

I think there was a hit man following me for a while after I last expressed my opinion.

I was whipping a line around the back yard today with the "new...old" Fenwick . Man is that thing sweet. Soft and powerful.  I think I'm having stirrings :-[
