Mark: LOL.. Yeah, that was one of the first things
i did buy was some better weight forward line... That level line almost made me
give up in disgust when I couldn't get it to cast over about 25 ft,

is NOT Clickish
Chuck,
I starfted out vwith the exact same package about
21 years ago. Didn't even go fishing with it until I learned how to cast
the entire fly line in the back yard. Quite an accomplishment really
since it came with the worst fly line I've ever owned, a 7 wt
floating level line (sort of floated when I finally went fising with it.
Made me rfeally appreciate better rods. But learning on that has allowed
me to adapt to other rods relatively quickly.

world to shows etc, and asked a MILLION questions, and got send umteen "care
packages" from ppl of all walks of life here, asking NOTHING in return, but
maybe reports on how I was coming along.. Taught me EVERYTHING (or directed
me to books, videos etc that would) I know about fly fishing and/or
tying..Did NOT laff when I told the group that all I had was a Shakespeare
"$29.95 Wal Mart Special combo rod/reel given to me by my daughter for
Fathers day. and I could go on and on, but it would use too much bandwidth,
