Got a 9' 5wt for my birthday back in july and have practiced with it a little bit in the yard . Well , I got to use it for real this weekend at TrailBridge res. and what a blast it was. The first day I caught exactly zero fish for zero bites. Not good. The second day I tried a fly recommended by 5-Cents and blammo . Who would have thunk it . A big black wolly bugger was the ticket. I ended up landing three fish in about 5 casts and decided to pinch my barb. This affected my catch ratio for the weekend but not the fun factor. I'm hooked. I had more fun catching those feisty little rainbows than I could ever have imagined. Thanks for the tips Shane ....RD
