    Lightbulb Birthday suprise for my wife...

    Birthday Surprise for my Wife, well she hasn't gotten it yet, its coming from the west coast in the mail. I ordered her a TFO casting for recovery 5wt. She hasn't fly fished yet. She has been to a fly festival a couple years ago along with me, Tuber, and Dotman. There she got to cast a fly rod with some instruction from someone who was giving free lessons. She said she really ennjoyed it and seemed to. Also there, a fly rod was won during a drawing by someone we knew, a 5wt TFO casting for recovery rod. Susan seemed to really like it alot. So I'll find out in a couple of days when it arrives in the mail. I'll have to wait and see...

    Nice thought there Grubb. In my case, such a gift would raise an eyebrow.......or two.

    I've tried to interest my wife in fly fishing with for the last six or seven years with no luck. She's concerned about hurting the fish. 8T

    Thumbs up

    Tim,
    I'm sure Susan will love it. She sure admired that one at the show.

    Hey Mark...As I recall, the rod is a deep purple blank with one of those pink "crossed ribbons" on it. It really IS a beautiful rod. Tim can correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe I'm correct.
    Mike
    FAOL..All about caring, sharing, & good friends!!
