New toy...... AGAIN?

Just a few days back, my fly buddy got a new set of fly rod and reel. Although they were pre-own, my friend still pay a thousand over buckaroos for that set. Quiet Loop fiberglass rod and an Orvis CFO modern classic fly reel, I would say a very matching set for that price he paid.

Not too long ago, he said he had enough of reels and rod but I know that will not be the last or rather, there will be no LAST. Fisherman is never satisfy with their equipments as there will always be newer models and more sophisticated equipments. And upgrading is a continuous procedures.

Similarly I just built myself another 3wt rod from McFarland blanks and got an Orvis CFO II.

It's just like Christmas when the package arrived at my door step. I have wanting to get that reel for quite sometime now... and I am I did. See... what I mean about having my LAST buy...
