OH! ...you want me to regale you with tall tales of my dashing failure. OK,
I tried a single BH hot prince and single BH zebra with no luck and then
tried a wooley booger with no luck. I manage to tangle my line on my pole
at least one out of every 3-4 casts and snag a bush once every seven. On
the bright side, when it all comes together, I can get a #12 BWO straight
out about 20 yds and I got my leader/tippet tied correctly (blood knots at
2x, 4x, 5x) so it will lie down nicely when I don't hack the cast. My
mending skills are better than a push in the eye with a dry stick. I'm not
catching fish, yet, but the mechanics are improving steadily.

Happy?
