    I have quite a few lightweight rods ranging from; 00 to 3 wt's.

    They are a true please to fish.

    I have caught a lot of large fish on them ; 7 pound carp to 18 inch rainbows.

    You have to realize that they are not long distance casting rods, athough you can get some good casts in.

    I have cast some large flies for bass, but you have to ajust your casting stroke to accomidate the larger flies.

    One important thing to rememeber is that you need a good reel for those rods.

    Lightweight rods make you feel like every fish is a brute!

    I think that everybody should at least try fishing with one for a day.

    Take care,
    chris
