I’m really really trying to avoid finding a fish that makes me go that route. While I’m sure the larger class of gear is in my future at some point, I have no interest in gauging my wife’s reaction to me coming home with a small car’s value in gear with a second child on the way.

So I’m hoping to find smaller fish to cut my teeth on, and maybe upgrade as the kids get to fishing age or something (or at least next season?)
