LOL Rock! That's great! My Dad has always sported a 6'6" 4wt, and he loves it! Great for those little trout streams he loves to fish all the time. My next FR purchase is going to be 6'6"er. Lots of fun on little water! Where's the pic of this new rod! Come on! :D

Re: A Boo Rod chooses Me !
You guys have me grinning ear to ear. I agree, they have a way of doing that to us, or at least me, wonderful women [B][U]AND[/U][/B] fine fishing rods. Must have something to do with being entrusted to hold something so fragile yet, so smooth and graceful in action you don't ever want to let it get to far away. And I don't care how it sounds to non-fly fishers because we all know it is as true as the rise...

Re: A Boo Rod chooses Me !
There is something about the feel of a good fly rod. I don't know how to explain it, but it exist.
Re: A Boo Rod chooses Me !
I still have my first fly rod...back from when I was 8-16 yrs old. It's a pfleuger, and nothing feels better to me than that rod! I still take it out once in awhile, and it's like being re-united with a long lost friend! I remember how many times that cheap old rod and I outfished guys with $1000 rods......loved it! :D

Yep , The personality of the rod ! My rod might not feel good to you. And Vice versa. But it does feel good when you find one that fits !!!
