		<description><![CDATA[As a fly-fishing angler you will soon realize, your fly rod is the second most important pieces of equipment.  The first most important piece of the puzzle is the gaining and storing of knowledge in the art of fly-fishing of course.  Selecting the right fly rod can be puzzling.  I hope this article will give you some direction into which fly rod is right for you.  Fly rods come in various shapes and sizes, and which one you choose depends mainly on the type of fishing you plan on doing. Fly fishing rods come rated in terms of the net weight they can handle (designated by nwt or just wt).  This means that if you are fishing waters for fish up to eight pounds, you should use an eight nwt rod.  Therefore, the higher the number, the bigger fish the rod is capable of handling.

They have a smooth progressive action which makes them a dream to use.
