Default Great catch

I finally got out this afternoon and got some fishing in. No great shakes,
but I did "catch" something interesting. As I pulled into the parking area,
I nearly ran over a very nice rod and reel. Since several area fishermen
frequent ROFF, I thought I'd post it here and will also notify the local
shops in case someone is looking for it. George, Stan, 'tripper, et al:
please ask around and see if someone you know lost a nice set up, and pass
the word in the TU and any other organizations. Someone out there must be
sick over losing this. You know where to find me.

You'll notice I didn't describe said rod and reel. If you can do that, it
yours - one guess per customer, please. (and this ain't gonna be one of
those easy outfits to decribe.)

Okay, that's fair enough. How about a hint though, as I lose a great many
rods and reels each year.

All I need to know is rod color, name brand, length, weight, no. of
sections. Reel name brand, size, color, etc., etc., etc.

Did I forget anything?

Rod is Shakespear, black, about 5ft. long, weighs..oh, about 2 pounds
with Zebco reel (which is pink) about 2 inches in dia. Hooks (4) have
green power bait, (3) have corn, and (1) has a wooly bugger.

If it's a 2 wt. with a 120 ft. shooting head made of factory second DT
running line, pink swastikas in the wrapping, jericurl juice on the
grip, and the fly lands and floats perfectly when tossed into the dog's
water bowl, it belongs to one of Mike Connor's disciples...you could ask
'em both...

Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know...the FBI will be notified...hey, I'm just
doin' a little bit of fishin'....
