Thanks to all of the replies... I just sold a Winston IBIS 9' #5wt. fast action only because after using my Far & Fine and going to the Winston I had to almost learn to cast all over again, it was like using a 9' 2x4 for a rod. All of the response has definitly got me thinking maybe I should stay where I'm at and just keep throwing the old Far & Fine it's old and slow like me, I sure would hate to break it at this point.
