Default Newbie questions -- after my 1st season of fishing

SNIP

You caught a ton of fish, so why try to fix "something that ainīt
broke"?

Wait another year, and improve your knowledge and experience before
you buy anything else. You can increase the performance of a #6
weight rod into the wind very considerably by using a shooting head on
it. For info on shooting heads see here;

The right head will allow you to cast a lot further, and also to use
larger flies if you wish.
