Yuck. Talk about a fly fisherman snob. I had heard there were such animals
but hoped it
wasn't true. But, as with wine drinkers, I guess there are snobs
everywhere...........

Sad............

Um, it's not unheard of to purchase a $750.00 fiberglass rod.

Howdy,

If you're just getting started, or want to get a backup rig, here's a
soup to nuts, get on the river proposal for doing this for about $100,
with a pretty snazzy rig, if you ask me. Circa 1950 glass rods can be
excellent.

Yuck. Talk about going backward. I can think of no reason at all for a
beginner not to fish with graphite, unless he knows for some strange
reason
that a soft fiberglass rod just so happens to be the correct tool for him.
And I can't understand how that would be so.
