That first Brown sure gave a decent account of itself. I googled Thomas & Thomas rods. Very nice.

@@adzoutnabout888 Yeah - first trout fought hard - I thought that I was in for a day for the ages, but not to be 🙁

does Barb know that you can get some very good rods for under $700 ? And that they don't wear out after 3 uses? I thought I had a problem.

Very enjoyable, Robert! I have just returned from the north east coast of Tasmania where I stumbled across a good collection of collectable Tasmanian hard cover fly fishing books and other collectable trout fishing books. I photographed them for you and if you are interested, I can email you the photos and details of the source if you provide me with an email address. They are great books and well worthy of an avid fly fisherman's collection.
