Thanks to all who gave me ideas for "brook trout" and the "rod tool."

Caught two brook trout that were about 9" and some smaller ones..had never seen one before, they are so beautiful, like jewelry.
Tried to put the fly down gently...

I am grateful for the ideas for the "rod turning tool." I like the idea of setting it up on the porch, reading a book, and turning it by hand. I'll try that, hopefully I will get to that stage. It's good to know that a "turner" can be found at various places if need be.

This site is a great resource! Thanks again to all. learner
