POLL: What Is Your Favorite Fly Rod?

POLL: I am curious what your favorite fly rod is? ... If I were to reply, the fly rod I'm using at the moment, that wouldn't be as smartassed as it sounds. There are many variables, sitting in a canoe or standing, wide open casting or heavy cover, calm day or wind blowin' like hell, fishing size 24 midges or heaving half a ton of deer hair etc. etc. So you see it's not really practical to have but one or two favorites. In no particular order: In a canoe fishing for bluegill: Winston IM6 9' 3wt Standing in a gale fishing for trout: Sage 590-4 RPL Standing in a wide open stream fishing for trout: Sage 490-4 LL Crawling on my belly fishing for brookies: Winston IM6 7.5' 3wt -- Ken Fortenberry

Ken, you wrote So you see it's not really practical to have but one or
two favorites. I totally agree, I have several rods for different species and situations. I guess what I was getting at is if you had to choose 1or 2. I am mostly interested in the manufacturer part of the answer. Thanks for your comments Ken! Have a great day! Richard Lee Merritt "Ken Fortenberry" wrote in message om...
