Amen. I'll add only that in 20 years or so of fly fishing I have myself
wiggled and have witnessed countless others wiggle thousands of rods and
practice casting with them at their owners behest, and NEVER heard anyone
say, "well now, that's a real piece of ****, that is."

Strip the rods of identifying features and 99 out of a hundred fly fishers
won't have the slightest clue of what they are casting with........and you
can make a TON of money betting consistently that the other 1% will get it
wrong.
