Yes. I fly fish. I use a graphite fly rod. My reel has dacron backing. My reel has a nice drag. My leader is monofilament. My hooks are made of steel. I have expensive, high tech floating line. I also have environmentally friendly sink tip line. I use fly floatant to keep my artificial bait/fly/bug/fuzz/popper looking tasty.
I guess the difference is like a gas/electric hybrid or a diesel/electric hybrid. People have their preferences.
The purity complex of the fly fisher is annoying. That is my conclusion following my observations.
