With a 15' rod (telescopes to 20") and equivalent line length tucked
into the back of my vest, I can see about 90% of my nymphing being
done with this rod. Also, when dapping would be the thing to do (such
as last year at Penns when the drakes covered the water), to have this
rod available would be very helpful.

Oh, good God! Why do I have a sudden mental image involving Frank, a 15
foot telescoping rod, and one of those tremendous lightning storms for which
Penn's valley is noted??
