    Good idea. I saw a couple fly rods in the "bargain cave" last time I was at Cabela's, but nothing less than 6 - 7 wt. and under 8'6". Will keep my eye out in the future for one though.

    I have a spinning rod that I like as well, especially for casting small 1/16 - 1/8 oz. roostertails and feather jigs. But I enjoy learning more about fly-fishing and using the technique.
