Members bobtu Posted December 12, 2007 Author Members Posted December 12, 2007 So, I decided and the family bought me the TFO. I tried a few different ones including the Sage and I sucked at casting them all equally I mean I was really bad... Oh well, I'm a quick learner... I'll pick it back up again. I used a bit of the difference to buy a newer vice and some supplies and tied a few zebra midges... The pic below is the first.. Not too bad for the first fly in 21 years I think I need some better thread... the old stuff frays real easily. Thanks again for everyones help.
JobyKSU Posted December 12, 2007 Posted December 12, 2007 Congratulations, and welcome to the club! Word of warning (from experience). I received my first decent combo for Christmas. I was so excited about it that despite the snow and ice on the ground I put in a decent number of hours casting over the next week. The frozen lawn ended up stripping the coating off the line and I had to replace it before it even hit the water! Have fun and let us know if you ever head south! ::.
