So Ive been an avid fly fisherman for close to 20 years and over the last 15 it just dawned on me that Ive never updated / upgraded my gear.
Its always worked, never been broken so I fished the hell out of it and went thru life doing my thing. Just like Guns, once you get something new, you just keep going so that I did. The wife got me new Simms Rivershed boots for Xmas. Then I had to have the new Simms G3 guide waders to compliment them. Then tonight this followed me home : Ross Evo LT2 sitting on a 9' 5WT Z -AXIS rod. I guess technology has changed quite a bit over the last 15 years and the guy who set me up at the shop said i should be amazed.... Gonna get out this weekend and check it out first hand.

The report is the river I fequent in the winter was a giant slushy as it was very cold here the last few days. So given that we ended up on a flatlands Arkansas river tailwater below pueblo dam.
Fished for 4 hours and took 5 fish, all bows, one over 20" with the rest being little guys 10-14" As for the new rod and reel it was awesome and such less work to throw around. Im pretty pleased overall. |
