    No. I used to drive by it a couple times a year on my way to Eureka, and thought about it, but never stopped.

    @DrFunker - the Eagle has landed!

    My goodness...all of these arrived at once. I also went up to LL Bean and they had a special section for Tenkara flies. Picked up a dozen. This rod has some great reviews on YouTube. I like the protective cap on the end that covers the other small cap.

    You are set! Nice.
    Looks like a great selection on flies too.

    Just got some Daiwa floating line in, myself.

    Just ordered 8. Noticed today when I was rigging level line that the spools are bulky.
    I have those blue ones too. Durable and easy to use.
    Also have the Dragontail foam ones. Those are incredibly light, but just a little bulky.

    I passed on those foam one for the same reason...they seemed a tab bulky. Figured the blue ones were a suitable comprise.

    Oh...do I tie a slip knot on those level lines to attach to the Lillian?

    I'll let you know how the "cards" work out.
    Oh yeah, that floating line came in too. Can't wait to try that. It is thinner than western floating line, but seems like it is designed with the same intent.

    @DrFunker

    So in Massachusetts, can you use Tenkara on FFO designated water? I've heard you can't in NH.

    From what I've read, seems ok in ME. But I want to confirm with Fish & Game.
