Sounds like a plan.......
I'm with you on this.

I have a Sage 3200 C&P on my TFO 7'6" 3 wt.

The naysayers want to catch all the fish themselves.....

I don't give them or their negativism any creedence.

Nice one
AND, on a 3wt.....

Loop to Loop

Tie a small perfection loop on the end of your tippet section.

Just like test driving some new cars.......

You'll know it when you cast it.

Test out a bunch.

I test cast about 8 or 9 other models - can you guess which manufactureres?
Why spend $600 for about the same performance and feel as the TFO...

F/C now offers the Ex-Officio Amphi-pants in a 30 inch inseam.
That's perfect for me

The 32 inch inseam was a little long for me and I'm 6 foot.

Thanks you all so much for your considerate replies.

I am passing this link on to my brother.

It always amazes me that may, many of us at FAOL share so much more in common than just fishing.

There has been postings regarding the deaths of some members pets over the last few years.

Superfine Far and Fine 2pc newer brown blank 5.5? (was there a 2pc in the brown blank?

YES, I have one.

As to the Clearwater / Superfines....etc.

I was told by Orvis Factory Store...

Coupla questions

1- How large are the streams you fish?
2- how dense is the cover around the stream?
3- How spooky are the trout?

Softer rods ( such as the Orvis Superfines ) are probably...

The'll all cast far enough to give you a shot at catching a fish.........

Congrats
