    Re: a welcome sign

    I haven't really looked at them closely, but I do know they come with some bobbers, Fish Dope attractant, assorted jigs, and I think there may be some 3-way swivels in there too. I couldn't tell what kind of jigs (fur or feather) were in the box, but I buy all my jigs separately too. I only use the feathered. You may want to look into the Cabin Creek FNF jigs -- they are feathered and come in some great colors.

    I saw some asprin heads at Backwaters about 10 days ago. They had a fair selection of sizes and colors.

    The Starter kit is a complete kit with everything but the rod reel and fireline, 3 way's and flouro.

    Buy the kit, and FNF rod and reel and some fireline, a small spool of 6lb flouro, some 3 way swivels and you're on the water.

    It has 12 jigs, in 1/32 and 1/16, garlic fish dope, instructions, and 2 bobs bobbers.

    WOHOO...........fnf is almost here.

    Later,

    Just another reason to buy the jigs seperate because I have NEVER seen it where 1/32 versus 1/16 ounce jigs made a difference. I USED to have several of these 1/32 ounce jigs and never seen a difference in that they produced over the 1/16 and all they were doing was taking up slots in my box so out they came and have not been in my box for several years now. 1/16 ounce jigs is all you need for the FNF and the thought process that DEPTH AND PRESENTATION IS THE MOST IMPORTANT FACTOR in fishing the fly that you can control. IMPOSSIBLE that these fish will turn away from a 1/16 only to wait for a 1/32 ounce jig. There is a little difference in the fall rate but not enough fish are caught on the fall that it will be a difference maker, plus if the fish are hitting it on the fall lets say they hit it at 10 foot when your leader is at 13 foot then you are missing out on a LOT of fish if you don't move your leader to 10 foot. These fish will feed looking up and won't move very far to feed. A bait sitting at 13' will have a lot less chance at catching a fish sitting at 10'. The other way around and your chance go up astronomically. The kit would be a better deal if they had 3 kits, 1/16oz kit, 1/32 oz kit and then the normal mixed kit. I would by the 1/16oz kit many times over before the other 2 for the reason mentioned above.
