Default Fighting butt, and some fish pictures


Put a fightbutt on my light crispy SLT 8' #4 ? No way! :-)


Roger Why not?

Roger How much do you think 1 1/4 inch of cork butt weighs? Anyway,
Roger I've gotten so used to never having to think about not damaging
Roger the reel that I wouldn't want to be without it. To each his
Roger own, but I still think it's a good idea.

A couple of weeks ago I saw a guy using the tiny fighting butt of his
9' 6wt rod to perform two-handed spey casts with his one-handed rod in
a very tight space. (This guy is a really good caster.) It looks
really cool and weird at the same time.

BTW, are your fighting butts detachable?
