A tool serves a purpose.....by definition.

Something for you to aspire to.

Spinning Rod & Flies ?

Hi,

Won't be able to get out for a few weeks yet, but was thinking a bit
ahead.

I may do some early fishing from a rowboat, and, frankly, have never liked
using a flyrod off the boat. Always results in rod dings no matter how
careful I am.

So, have mainly use a spinning rod and the typical spinning lures from the
boat, and the flyrods from shore.

Question: how would one rig a spinning setup to be able to cast, e.g.,
size 6 or so, flies with a spinning rod ?

A small weight a bit up from the fly, or a dropper with a weight, or ...?

Practical at all, or, forget it, and just crank out the flyrod again ?

Thanks,
Bob
