Hi,
I have just decided to take up the obsession - er hobby - of fly
fishing and had a question. The only equipment that I currently have
is a reel that I won about 10 years ago. It's a Marquis 8/9. Can
someone help me out with what I have? Is it a good reel? What fish
species would this be good for - bass, trout.... Also, will this work
well for a beginner? Also, if this is a decent reel, what rod would
be a nice mate for it?

Thanks for the help!
Mike
