Well, just bought a new rod

[RockyRaab]

Finally got the rod. Sure a delicate little thing compared to my other rods! Looks to have excellent craftsmanship, and the couple dozen casts I made over knee-deep snow in my front yard just now impressed the heck out of me: feathery light feel, perfect balance, delivers line like cottonwood fluff drifting to earth.

Can't wait to get it out to a stream.
