When this series came out withing the last two years, I was looking for a six weight, sold my Loomis Shore Stalker to Yoda.
When I found a shop that actually carries a good inventory of Scott, brought this puppy home, but almost didn't buy it because my thinking is a six should have a fighting butt
but I fishing it some and loved the rod but still wanted a fighting butt, emailed Scott and Ian Crabtree always answers within the hour if he's in. As he said they don't offer all the bells and whistles on A4 line, I understand (but think they are missing sales)
My FFF club has a sell/swap at the July meeting every year. So, I thought what the heck will take it and see if I have any interest, laid it on table and first person that picked it up was reaching in pocket for a wade of hundred dollar bills
Figured I might get lucky and get a S4 on sale if they ever close them out. Called Ian on Friday about the S4 future, had he cast new RIO Perception line. Cost to build a fighting butt for the A4. He said they do a custom run every year for a fly shop in Arkansas, for their shop smallie rod. Said to give them a call and I did, they had 3 left from this years build.
Anticipation of opening up box to see what I think a six should look like
it's killing me
what I'm talking about
she gets tested after lunch
and McLellan's Fly Shop price is same as all other A4's
