Sure I can catch fish on a $50.00 rod just as well as a $800.00 rod. I can also get to work in a beater car, But i would prefer to arrive in a BMW though. It all comes down to the consumer and what they like. I would love to fish this rod and to own one but I don't see that happening anytime soon. The Midge season will be here very shortly and I have begun tying midges for the shop. I can't believe summer is almost gone!Hopper Juanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08309898376534780241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1036878881620504256.post-88899537809552429242011-09-03T10:19:32.855-06:002011-09-03T10:19:32.855-06:00I've not noticed that fly.

You have to wonder...Thanks for the insights Juan...<br />You have to wonder "where to next?" with the latest generation carbon rods. The technology makes sense after watching the marketing videos but it sounds a little like 1990's hi-fi where the new isn't better but different.<br />The Hardy reels look like most other modern designs... I still love their Classic range. Can't help feeling there's better reels out there if you want ultra modern (Sage, Nautilus...?)<br /><br />Is your midge season fast approaching?<br /><br />Hope you're well. <br /><br />AndyAndy Bairdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03643161676515645120noreply@blogger.com
