Hi Tony,

I said to friends after returning from AU, "............and they almost
speak the same language as we do."

You have a great 9' #8 line 3 piece rod there that should be great for
bigger flies and bigger fish. You could use an 8 or 9 line on it but
probably not a 7?

Good-day lad..........
