Well, it's been 3 years plus now and I had been thinking about a change so I went to the Orvis Shop yesterday and turned in my 9 ft, 8wt for a trade up to a "newer" model and then went home and dusted off the other five rods and reels and extra spools then tied 16 new flies ( Hi-Ties and Clousers). Treated my Airflo's to a little line cleaner and my Depth charge lines as well and repaired my old shooting basket. Yep, I am going to flyfish again. I found that this last spring I really missed it and some of the friends I used to fish with that don't plug. I really enjoyed actually tying again. The old Regal works great still and I found the little spring thingie that hold the materials back which had been lost for two years. Hell I even got one of those turnstyle thingies for holding tinsel, Crystal flash and the like and a brand new ceraminc bobbin and new threads. Figures I would have spent over two grand in new surf rods and reels and junk then go back to flyfishing. The plugging is great but it got old lately. I dunno, maybe it's just me, sides, I want a tarpon on the fly before I die. Even more than I want a fifty pound bass, and that's the God's honest truth. Don't hate me.
I am going back to the darkside.......
