I am a new member. Fly fishing 20ish years. Mostly with fast action Sages and Scotts. Mostly in Montana/Idaho/Yellowstone and in Ga and NC. Recently got interested in older fiberglass rods on another forum and then on this one. Bought a Fenwick FF79 online. (i feel like i can walk around the block while backcasting as compared to Sages and Scotts, but i guess that's the point huh?) Took it to the Madison wade section today and hooked and landed an 18" brown whose image is forever lost to my memory as i forget the get the camera out and photo my first ever decent fish on that rod!!! (I have also developed a modest interest in old Medalists, for what it's worth.)
i enjoy this forum. Thanks.
