Default Getting back into it...

I am an 'advanced' beginner fly fisherman. I understand water, hatches, presentation, fly weight and keeping my 'ears' open for all the advice I can obtain. Life is all about learning.

I stepped up to a new rig today with a TFO BVK 9' 5 wt and a Ross Flyrise 2 reel with WF5F Trout LT Rio line. I am pretty stoked to go back to basic's with this gear and develope 'skills'. My first fish on a fly was 1980, up to that point I was the 'Mepps' Magician' on spin cast. My old fly 'rig' now feels like a 'broomstick 'and a 'kite' winder...

I had used 'double taper' line before but elected to go 'weight forward' this time around

Is there anyone out there using this Rio Trout LT WF5F and TFO BVK 9' 5 wt ?
