Schoolie,

I'm not giving up. Fishing isn't in my blood, it is my blood! My last physical, I had little red blood cells with stripes on them.

I'm far from giving up. I'm just expanding my horizons a bit. I'll be able to use the Lamiglas Paragree rod when the little guys move in and switch to the XRA1205 when the bigger fish are around or when I get to travel to where the big fish are. The rod I have is just too much for casting little stuff.

The Paragree is going to be a great rod. It's a 9 foot blank rated for 1/2-1 3/4 oz. I wanted to try something different and contacted this guy Dorge from around the net looking for help on Fuji Concept guides. I don't know much about them so I'm following his advice to the T and I'm not changing my mind about it. He told me that the best guides to use on a light rod are titanium ringed SiC guides, gave me the sizes and all. He told me this good reel to use. It's a daiwa reel made for Cabelas. It's rather pricey but it has 12 ball bearings in it and a roller bearing. He said it's my best choice for the rod. It's going to be a sweet setup.

It's going to be pretty cool.

So long story short, not giving up, just changing the game plan.
