    We used kapok gut/fur bugs for stocked trout years ago. Just wrap it on a small jig head. Never used it for dry flies.

    If brookies are your goal....I'd stay in the States and fish the U.P. of Michigan. Most are small, but you can find some good ones if you work at it.

    I've never seen a need to overline a rod, provided that I took the right rod to the party. I use a 7wt for smallies most of the time, sometimes a 6wt, or a 5wt, or an 8wt, or a 9wt. Cheers.
