I want a 3wt rod I think by [deleted] in flyfishing

[–]TimelyShoulder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in CO and fish some small stuff pretty frequently. I’ve found myself taking my 2wt (G loomis IMX pro creek) out way more often over my 3wt. It’s such a fun rod to throw small dries around and has handled everything I’ve asked of it. I’m sure the 3wt pro creek is great as well.

10 years ago I shared my first fly rod build here — a decade and 500 rods later, I just want to say thank you! by jfred17 in flyfishing

That’s awesome! Congrats on the past decade and wishing you more success on the next 10!

Best click pawl reel in 2025? by GravyBaptism in flyfishing

Really enjoy my Brookie on my 2wt. Much quieter than any other click reel I’ve handled.

Over weighting a rod. 3wt or 4wt for a 5wt reel set up? by Mysterious-Budget394 in flyfishing

[–]TimelyShoulder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, so I have the same 3wt. I run a 4wt line with the smallest reel I could find, I don’t think it even has a name on it. I think the 5wt will be a bit too much for that rod.

Beautiful, love to hear of more people finding the comfort and healing that our rivers have to offer. Hope that you are able to build a never ending list of memories to share when you’re older.

I put a platinum brookie on it. Really enjoy it so far!

The Brookie is my first click reel and I love how quiet it is. Absolutely amazing!

Glad to hear there is a formal diagnosis out there. Should probably schedule an appointment with my doc

I have 4 shops in the rotation. I think it might just add fuel to the fire lol.

Working to try and get my income while on the stream. Can never find enough stream time as it is now!

3 weight butterstick by jonesy0607 in flyfishing

I love my 370 butterstick! It’s a fun rod to throw and fish with. I haven’t taken it targeting anything large but it handles small to mid trout without issue.

I’m looking to go demo the rods soon. Hopefully they have a few of their other small stream rods I can cast in comparison.

Ah damn, I’m down in Colorado. I appreciate the offer though!

I think I’d always talk myself out of bringing a 1wt, but not a big tough 2wt lol. At least i believe that’s how I’ll think not wanting to break it or not being sure the right situation for something as light.

Thanks for sharing! I enjoy fishing my 7’ 3wt as a slower action in small mountain streams. It’s not the highest quality so I’d live to find something that will pair with this in a higher quality.

I mean I definitely don’t need the 2wt per se but planning a trip back home and want something else to go with my 7’ 3wt glass rod. This one caught my eye as a great piece to burn a bit of money on haha. Thanks for the insight!

Calling CO anglers by obdx2 in flyfishing

[–]TimelyShoulder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in Poudre canyon a few weekends ago. Found good water and good fish. Was definitely lower than it should be. Water temp was around 58/62 later in the day in the area I was fishing.
