First time and lovin' it

First, thank you for selling the equipment/tackle that you do. I received the Nissin Sasuke 5ft rod and it is fantastic. Within thirty minutes I was at the small ditch that runs down the side of the property. I have always seen small fish in it and you sold me the equipment to hook them. I had a 2LB tippet with a #20 fly hook and a Owner float. I used pieces of baloney and they loved it. For my line I used 4LB fire line. They say it is a 1LB diameter, looks a little bigger than that but it seemed to work well.

As age slows my pace, I will become more like the heron.
