And you don't own a 2 weight WHY?
Building that two weight was one of the best moves I ever made.
1. The price was right. The kit was under $80. The reel was $14. The line was... well, the line was $35.
2. a 12" bass will put up a good fight

3. Exotics will put a nice bend in the rod

Put that 5wt. down. Get yourself a 2. Come see why the eyes of those guys twinkle when the subject of bluegill is mentioned.
