TR: I love the sound of a Hardy in the Morning - a little wordy

There's actually been people who have posted here complaining about the
"noise" Hardy and other similar reels make. Poor misquided souls.
Love those Bougle's and JLH's. There's a new grass stick in my future and
I
think I'm going to put one of the Angel's on it.


Wayne, I've got a Bougle with less than 10 hours fishing on it and I don't
care for the style, design, functionality OR the clatter. If you're
interested in a possible sale/swap, drop me an email.

If you're still interested in a click and pawl reel, the discontinued
Redington CT's are excellent reels. You can usually pick them up for
about $50 on EBay. I bought my first for $100 and I thought it was a
steal at that price. They make an especially good reel for light
outfits, 4 weight and below. They're solid, well made reels and are
light in weight. (And the click isn't obnoxious, IMO)

I don't like noisy click and pawl reels.

Hear, hear. I don't know who decided fly reels *ought* to
make noise, but imo it's whacko. It wouldn't be so bad if
it was only when a fish peeled line, but it's also anytime
I strip line off the reel. I like peace and quiet when I'm
fishing.

I'm on the fence on this one.....I love hearing my CFO scream when I have a
good fish on, but it does ger a little annoying when stripping line.

I don't like Fortenberry, either. :-)


I suspect Fortenberry would be hard to fish with, probably ok on the forward
stroke but on the back cast I doubt there would be much in the way of flex.
After a while the arm would get kind of tired too as he's probably a little
too heavy to cast repeatedly but on the other hand he'd probably do a decent
job protecting tippets.

On the Missouri I was playing a hot Bow when two sports came by in a
drift-boat; and one said to the Guide "What a *loud* reel that guy has".
(I
was using the Bougle at the time). The Guide smiled; and said "He's
playing
a trout, that reel sounds fine to me".

I really wanted to reply to the guy...but had my hands full at the
moment.
Those new Angels look great to me...I see one in my future also

Dave:

What part of the Missouri were you fishing? I ask because I bought a week at
a cabin at a conservation auction near the Dearborn exit on I-15 that I have
to use between now and the end of June. I don't know a thing about the
area.

I like that guide
