Wanted: FLy rod & reel (inexpensive)

[kukukajoo]

Hi Everyone!

Just moved back to NH after living in the UK for 6 mos. All my rods and reels and most of my gear are in storage in Atlanta as I decided to come back home to NH instead. It will be a while before I can afford to fetch everything so they will prob be there through the winter and I just can't wait that long to go fishing! I may as well be practicing my casting and get a line wet.

I do have my waders and boots (took them to UK with me!) but borrowed kit when I was there. I also have some of my flies and my little vest pack (at least the front of it) with some tippet, clippers, knife, etc.).

Looking for just a cheap simple setup that will get out casting while I am awaiting a job offer to come through. I am going a bit stir crazy not having anything to do here.

I am in Concord, BTW but would find transportation to pick up within prob 30 miles or in the lakes region area.

Many thanks,

Kristina

It doesn't say the weights.... I think I am going to check out Seirra Trading Post- they made a mistake once and totally made it up to me with a free rod/reel combo and a bunch of credit, too. It was incredible. I had forgot all about that, not to mention the setups I got are fine....

Hi Kukukajoo,

I've got a setup that I hardly use and would be willing to lend to you until you get your gear back.

I work in Concord and live 30 minutes north.

Let me know if you're interested.

Thank you Chris (Statler) for meeting me this afternoon and for the loan of the lovely 5 weight set up!

Soon as I hear from my brother I will call and try to set up some striper fishing- he lives right down there and knows how to find em!

Thanks again,

Kristina

I picked up a nice 3# from ll bean. I got the cheap on for $99. I like it a lot. 6' for streams but I can cast pretty far with it and it does a decent rollcast. I think it's a quest.

Nice job Chris... !
Kudos to you for that one...
Flyfishermen(women) helping flyfishermen(women)...that would be a good mission statement for this forum.
Alot of us probably could have spared a set-up and taken the chance...I thought about it for a minute...but that was about it.
Im thinking the fish gods will show their approval and smile on you accordingly.
Tight Lines !
