At the fly fishing show in Marlborough, MA this weekend, one of the vendors
was offering a 10% show special on all rods they brought to the show. One of
these was the Orvis Superfine 7'9" 2WT, which I'd been eyeballing in their
catalogs for more than a year. When I picked it up and put it through a
slight amount of casting motion, it called out to me and I had to buy it. I
didn't want to, but it had to be done.


Yep, I bought a 7'6" Orvis Superfine 1wt from Peter Charles
and it is one sweet casting little jewel on a tiny brookie
stream. I put a DT2 on it since I rarely cast more than
20-30', you might try a DT3 on yours and see what you think.
