        <![CDATA[ 
  Finally got out with my el cheapo fiberglass rig. Picked up a 6&#39; 6&quot; Eagle Claw and Shakespeare  reel at a Sportsman&#39;s Warehouse closeout and put
  a 6wt line I had laying around.
  
  I really enjoy how this rod casts. It great under 30&#39; but after that it was pretty good, just wish the shoreline had let me see just how far I could cast
  it.
  
  First fish on the new rod was this little crappie.
  
  
  
  
  
  Also got this colorful bluegill on an olive sparrow.... ]]>

			<description><![CDATA[ Checking this thread has me all ready to get back out there, maybe sunday. I think the fish were biting I just couldn&#39;t get to them from shore so I&#39;ll
have to get my pontoon out.
<br>
I have an older W&amp;M blank I have stripped down and need to rebuild. It was a spinning rod but I can&#39;t tell much difference between it and the fly rods.
I think I&#39;ll make that a spin/fly. I had forgotten just how much more fun it is to fight a fish on fiberglass. Maybe it was the shorter rod... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ cofisher, I don&#39;t doubt that your featherlight is a good rod to fish. W&amp;M certainly has the experience and background to put out a good product. I
imagine there are some real sleepers in their past offerings. I am looking forward to the day when I string up my Green Hornet and see what it can to. Glenn ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ TimJ.... glad you caught some fish.  Pretty crappie.  Like Cameron, my first fly rod (at least, my first fly rod that wasn&#39;t a hand-me-down) was a yellow
Eagle Claw.  I didn&#39;t even know it was fiberglass at the time.  I had a blast with that thing.  Just wish I&#39;d known how to roll cast back then. ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ TimJ...represent those yellow Eagle Claw sticks!  My first fly rod was one...and if it hadn&#39;t broke in half last summer then I&#39;d still be happily
fishing it.

			<description><![CDATA[ My W&amp;M rods get no respect. But, I&#39;ve got to say that I sure enjoy casting my Featherlight. It will never be my favorite as far as looks (although the
early brown Featherlights look much nicer than those yellow ones.) It casts like a dream and is an &quot;inexpensive (not cheap!) respectable small stream rod.
Flyboy912, it&#39;s actually a good example of an inexpensive rod that fishes well without having to pay $300.
<br>
<br>
Oh and TimJ, nice photos, glad to see your little... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Tim, this is the beginning. Don&#39;t trade in that Eagle Claw, it is a good example of a bad example. Some time in the future, when you have obtained more
fiberglass rods it will be fun doing a comparison with the WM (Wright &amp; McGill Eagle Claw) I have a mint condition WM Champion, which is identical to the
Sweetheart, except it has one less guide. Because of that issue, it is worth, on a good day, $10. It is a 6wt. also, and a little stiff for the gills, like
yours, but it is still fun,... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ That&#39;s a pretty nice looking rod! I didn&#39;t know that Sportsman&#39;s Warehouse sold any like that.
<br>
<br>
Last time I was there I did notice that the local Sportsman&#39;s Warehouse had two of the Griggs Heritage Fiberglass rods in stock. ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ I&#39;d like to catch some crappie, never had one on my line before. Like the old saying goes any bad day of fishing is better than a good day at work, nice
fish and combo there. ]]></description>
