@@-fishin Well that’s not good. I have wondered what these past three hot summers has done to fish in our area over all. Being lethargic makes me wonder if the heat has killed off some of their feed.

The max catch in touch 2wt is a great place to start but really I only started using max catch stuff to see if I like different styles of fly fishing but I don’t feel the need to upgrade to something better. The rod is good but the cork and the guides leave something to be desired. I’m actually thinking about buying a 11ft 3wt cortland comp rod but it’s 5 times the price. lol and I use an origin full frame reel from reel fly fishing out of South Africa. It’s the cheapest best looking one I could find but it’s a little bit to light and they can be hard to find. If you have any other questions just ask I’m happy to share. Leaders can be tricky when first starting out.

@-fishin thanks man! Infact getting started fly fishing or euro nymphing... contact nymphing I am reading tactical fly fishing by Devis Olsen and books by Gorge Daniels.... seems euro nymphing needs close proximity and is more deadly whilst fly fishing one has not to reach close quarters... you having experienced both styles what's the take to start into this sport.... most of our waters are a bit dangerous to wade though abundant in rocks/boulders on bank sides.
