But once you get the hang of it i think that you will love it.......i do alot of fly fishing here back home but i have to say that i rather have a pin in my hands any day if i had to choose,,,,i have spanked the fly guy's every time i have fished with the this year so far on the tribs in Erie honestly not trying to sound arrogant or anything just the god's honest truth. p.s i love it when they get mad ha,ha,ha, but anyways it's all what you like and what your comfortable with, alot of things go into pinning, shotting your line,floats,swivels, proper depths to float,different size floats,gram in shot size ect,,,,,check out a site call
