Up to now I had been using the Fairy reel mainly on smaller trout habitats in the feeder streams in both NW Connecticut and the Catskills. Last week I tried a 3 weight outfit on the Housatonic during an evening fall of light Cahills. Fishing white flies in the early summer dark is thrilling. Presenting the fly to a rising fish about 25 feet out got me hooked to a nice 13" Rainbow that took a bit of patience to land in the swift current. The photo was taken on my cell phone, and the reel was only a dull flash in the corner, so I had to paint it in a bit.
