I tried my $10 Bass Pro WF-5-F line. The rod loaded up beautifully. I was just casting in the grass, won?t be until next weekend when I could try it on the water.

Next time I am at Bass Pro, I?ll pick up a WF-4-F line to see what that will do.

In any event, I think the rod is a whole lot more usable now. I can get good loops on a short amount of line. Should be able to aim through the overhead cover and get the flies into mid part of the pond/lake.
