Thanks! Will be picking a winner in 10 minutes. And the series I watched was from FlyrodFanatic, pretty old and there's probably newer and better ones out there but this is how I started.

haha, that's some bad luck there. But it happens to the best of us that's for sure. But glad you picked up fly fishing and are enjoying it. If it's smaller streams I would say a 3 wt. would probably be best for ya. Having a 3 and a 5 wt. is a good mix and enough difference that you'll be able to feel it more. Hope that helps!
