Say hello to my little friend

With a great deal of generosity, and a small compensatory stipend from me, Dave (fishinhiker) has made me the proud owner of a thing of beauty.

My very first Fairy stick. complete with warranty card.

we're going to be so happy together.

Broke the tip on my 3wt and Justin and I ended up swiching off for the day with his txl00, and I caught a couple dozen browns in a stream the size of a sidewalk. I fell in love, what can I say.

Followed that up with about an hour playing with it at the ninemanner before dinner.
