I'll be sure and bring my 6'6" Lami for you to try; from it you'll have an idea of the feel of most glass rods.

All of this talk about fiberglass makes me curious. What's the fascination with glass? ]]> feeds@yuku.com (swalker9513) http://ultralightflyfishing.yuku.com/sreply/4072 Wed, 28 Jan 2009 15:51:55 GMT http://ultralightflyfishing.yuku.com/reply/4071/t/Any-opinions-on-the-602-4-Superfine-.html#reply-4071
i'm definitely going to do some checking on those glass rods.

JDS, so long as you're looking at rods in that price range, you might take a look at Scott Fibertouch rods, the new Hardy Glass rods (cheaper by a good measure), Steffen Bros. glass rods, and McFarland glass rods (willing to wait a year or so?). In a really short rod, glass just seems to communicate better than graphite (notice I didn't say cast better--I'll leave that up to the fisherman to... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (jkurtz7) http://ultralightflyfishing.yuku.com/sreply/4065 Wed, 28 Jan 2009 12:09:25 GMT http://ultralightflyfishing.yuku.com/reply/4062/t/Any-opinions-on-the-602-4-Superfine-.html#reply-4062 feeds@yuku.com (cross creek one) http://ultralightflyfishing.yuku.com/sreply/4062 Wed, 28 Jan 2009 11:53:26 GMT http://ultralightflyfishing.yuku.com/reply/4047/t/Any-opinions-on-the-602-4-Superfine-.html#reply-4047 What you're describing sounds very much like my TFO 6' 2wt. Too fast for 2wt line in short distance but great with 4WF in distances up to 35 feet.
I would love to handle a short true 2wt.

is there an advantage to the 00 over the 000? My only reasoning so far is that i should go ahead and go for the lightest TXL. ]]> feeds@yuku.com (jds) http://ultralightflyfishing.yuku.com/sreply/4036 Tue, 27 Jan 2009 20:23:12 GMT http://ultralightflyfishing.yuku.com/reply/4034/t/Any-opinions-on-the-602-4-Superfine-.html#reply-4034 feeds@yuku.com (flyflingerandy1) http://ultralightflyfishing.yuku.com/sreply/4034 Tue, 27 Jan 2009 19:19:05 GMT http://ultralightflyfishing.yuku.com/reply/4032/t/Any-opinions-on-the-602-4-Superfine-.html#reply-4032
I go back and forth on whether i want a shorter rod for my home waters, or one of Sage's 00 or 000 TXL to challenge the small fish i usually target. I'm loving the 1wt, but i see situations where i could go just a little lighter. : )

On the on the hand, i just have this soft spot for the Superfine series and i love short rods in general. : )

I'm looking at a few different rods, but i'm leaning toward the 6' 2wt Full Flex 3.0 Orvis Superfine Trout Bum. Has anyone fished this rod (or maybe even just cast it)? I saw one report on the internet where a guy tried it out. He said he was using 3wt line to get this shorter rod to load properly. I'm wondering if this little rod will load up with 2wt line for... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (jds) http://ultralightflyfishing.yuku.com/topic/443 Tue, 27 Jan 2009 13:45:06 GMT
