Mike, I'm considering a 2wt because I already have a 4wt. A 3wt seems so close to what I have and the rod will be specifically for small streams.
I am really considering the TFO Finnesse 2wt 7'3". I asked two forum members, Croozer and SRT007, about their experience with the rods, and they speak very highly of it. I'll research some more before I decide for sure.
Kind regards,
PTN
Very Clean build Mike!
Looks mighty nice
I love that patterning on the wild olive insert!
(Quite light for wild olive though... nice and unusual)

Hi Michael.
That is an awsome looking rod would you be able to build a 2 weight like that?
Cheers
Ian
Mike, very nice indeed (and welcome back)
If I can add anything to what has been said already, I also want to comment on the photography. A beautiful rod is just as nice as the picture taken of it, and your pics are also top quality! Very nice!!

Thanks Mario! I'm actually starting to look around for a decent SLR digital camera...the problem is the lenses are frikkin expensive. a Decent Macro lens is around R10k
So for now the "mik-and-druk" camera will do...actually has a good macro function.
Cheers

I agree with Mario, the photos are great… not to get off topic, but you might find it interesting that Charlie from Charlie’s Fly box, uses a “mic-n-druk”. The following photo was shot with the following…
