...went to my favorite lake Sunday; weather was nice, but a little windy...

Wanted to really give a new rod that was custome made for me by Lou Perez, "loudog" here on the board. He took a Cabela's Stowaway 8.5 3wt and dropped the butt section; making it a 6'10" 3-4 wt. I strung it up with SA Ultra 4 WF4F line on an Orvis BBS II reel.

Balance is perfect and it casts as far as your double-haul ability will allow.

Ended up with 11 fish landed and 5 missed. The take was real subtle all day.

Here's the nice crappie I caught yesterday that didn't come out this morning when I made this post...
