Post-Greenbriar Equipment Purchase

September 17-19

I decided to get my own equipment after using the guide's at Greenbriar. I found a White River CV2 rod (5 wt) at Bass Pro Shops (heaven in a fisherman's eyes) for $60. I also found an extra fly fishing reel my dad had at home. It was manufactured by Orvis and is of good quality. I purchased a new pair of forceps, a pair of clippers, a spool for tippets, new flies, and a new fly box. In total, I spent $120, which is pretty inexpensive for a rod and that much new equipment. I went fishing at my pond and caught 5 perch. I spent 2 hours shopping and 2 hours fishing (excluding 4 hours of drive time).
