Over the weekend, a couple of us went fishing in a small creek for a bit. Maximum casting distance was 30 or so feet. However, you would be fine casting under 10 feet on most occasions. And in some instances I was casting less than 5 (is that really a cast?).
Needless to say, there was no reason for a two handed rod. So, I went to my closet and dusted off a 9 foot single hander that hasn't seen action in more than a year. I've got to say, it was quite refreshing to wave around an almost weightless rod. Zinging out 30 foot overhead casts or even a few single hand speys. I really dug it.
Now, I won't be giving up my two handed rods. However, I will be taking that single hander out again this week! I enjoyed it so much, that I want to give it another whirl. So, I'm on the prowl for another small river/creek that has some good fishing.
