Another way overrated pic. Only after a hard fight can you get a fish to "pose" so steady. 5 for the picture and 0 for the imagination. You get 2-3, let's say 2.

Honestly, this photo is way overrated. You get 1 since I hate seeing trout get squized.

Nicely composed picture. I like the background. I don't like the green "butt-tag" and the immense eight turns of ribbing: You get 4.

First article that told a beginner like me how to set up my fly rod. Used simple terms and gave good instructions. Thank you.

And with the water temp at a brisk 42 F and the air temp 50, I just had to go back today and try for something on the bottom. Although it is only a two acre pond there have been eight pound Largemouth Bass taken there. I brought alomg a few tiny crawfish imitations that I often take big Bluegills with and sometimes a small bass. In the cold water you simply crawl them along. I picked up three bass, the bigger one is hopefully attached to this post. It was fun on a 6X leader on that tiny rod.

Let me answer my question for you. They are fine rods. I have been catching big Bluegills with mine all afternoon and it casts quite well.

Good to hear. Nobody else had obviously tried these rods. Personally I like the short and light rods, but unfortunately I have no bluegills to go try such a rod on. Wish I had, but the access to convenient small water/small fish is not good where I live.

Oh man, this is good. Dude you get 5 for composition and quality.

Let me answer my question for you. They are fine rods. I have been catching big Bluegills with mine all afternoon and it casts quite well. Has a nice feel to it and when I get the proper line on there I am sure that it will feel even better. The lightest I had was a four. It is going to be worthy of the freestone streams of the mid-Atlantic hills.

Ok Martin,
no problem.
I'll give it a try.
Let's see if it works

Long story longer

The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
