Default A nw species of bait Monkey discovered in Walkers Life...

So I got my first ever fly rod in yesterday. A beginner Pflueger 5/6 wt kit. It didnt cost me anythig but some credit card reward points. Well I went to Wal-Mart today and teh Fly Fishing Monkey got a hold of me. I went cheap til i learn the ropes, but bought about $20 worth of Betts Flys and Poppers.

I also got a 7' MH Abu Garcia Conolon Premier Rod... It look sspectacular with my ProMax on it. I will let you guys know how i like it for Bass fishing... I bought i because i fell in love with it while fishing for Specks in TX...

That right there is the reason I refuse to try fly fishing. I know I would have to find a second job.

You've got enough to keep you busy for a while! When you get it down, you'll love it!
