your impression of your new Graphite, as opposed to your old Fiberglass Rods

[Thudpucker]

Young lady, you are just toooo spoiled. You've had the thrill of it all.

Great fish.
My Dad had a Bamboo rod in a case with some flies. It had been stored up in the rafters of his house.
We discovered it when we were cleaning the place out.
I gave it to a guy who collects that stuff.
I'm sure it was not one of those expensive collectors items though.

Since I've never used a Bamboo rod, (other than a Cane pole) I just wont relate to 'full action' but I think I understand.

I'm looking for a small rod now. I miss my #5. This #8 Feel's like a Broomstick.

I got some good news today though. My old Cronies are talking about a trip up to the little Red again. Ahhhh Therapy!
