    Default Powell Adantage XL 9' 8wt

    anyone have an old Powell Advantage 8wt they're not using any more?

    lost mine on a trip to Florida in the winter, and just haven't been able to find anything that approaches it for weight/strength/easy for me to cast. apparently other salt-water fly fishers are all gorillas who can cast telephone poles--that's the impression left by the 8 wts i've tried.

    i still have the 6wt and 4wt i got from Sierra Trading Post years ago when we were starting out in this game, and they are still my favorites.

    (sorry about the misspelled title--can't seem to change it!)

    fly fishing and baseball share a totally deceptive simplicity; that's why they can both be lifelong pursuits.
