Not looking for a gigantic one as most of the fish will be schoolies up to 36"at the high end, I hope. I want to give the fish a fair chance. I understand the apprehension in lending something to someone you don't know. I would need it for several months as this will be done in my sparetime. I would definitely have it back to you by end of March and maybe much sooner if I have more time. I don't know much about them as far as drags go and such but I would like to take up some flyfishing this spring as the place I frequent is spectacular for such fishing. It would also need to be a fairly common model as I will have to purchase the drag washers for the reel. Any comments on what I should be looking for and must haves on the reel would be appreciated as I am not very schooled with flyfishing. Thanks for your time. P.
