G'day, My name is Paul and I'm a new member to your forum, I live in the Snowy Mountains, New South Wales, Australia. I've been fly fishing for trout ever since I saw THAT MOVIE, A river runs through it, so it's been a while now. As it's winter over here now I've been spending some time on the computer and found you great site. I've also been researching for a new rod and came upon many reviews for Elkhorn Fly Rods and as a result have just purchased a 9' 5wt from Brian Chavet the owner. What a great little rod and what a great person and company to do business with, I can recomend them to everyone. I'll go now and look forward to speaking with you again, I've found so many interesting and informative articles on the site.
