Makes for the most delicate presentation imaginable. Which never hurts in skinny water like that. ;)<br /><br />Tenkara-Fishinghttp://www.tenkara-fishing.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5411536621710336282.post-48482540135430289152012-09-25T19:34:32.949-06:002012-09-25T19:34:32.949-06:00Thanks Ashley!Thanks Ashley!TenkaraOnTheFlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17382490702643300295noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5411536621710336282.post-63092631746874088392012-09-25T19:34:16.130-06:002012-09-25T19:34:16.130-06:00Paul - almost perfect conditions if it were not fo...Paul - almost perfect conditions if it were not for the low water. I am typically using a no. 3 or 3.5, depending on the manufacturer. I hardly ever feel to go heavier. Haven't fished with a 2 or 1.5 yet, wow, that sounds super ultra light...TenkaraOnTheFlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17382490702643300295noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5411536621710336282.post-5055733294997334962012-09-25T19:32:20.257-06:002012-09-25T19:32:20.257-06:00Mark - thanks!

It seems to be able to cast most anything very well, especially light lines like a 1.5 or a 2 which works very well for skinny water.
