Ahh, but then there are "free" items... I won a new Cahill II reel with an extra spool and line/leader/backing while at the last TU meeting here. I'm dying to try it out, but have to go tie some hendrickson nymph patterns. I really scored with that door- prize, especially as my "walmart special" Martin reel was about ready to kick the bucket! On to tie some flies... Pete
