great posts everyone.. best part about this sport is one can never truly understand and master everything overnight...
for me i learned
a good idea on what i need spey/doublhanded rods for and what its not practical for
fish rise too dries all night long
pike feed at night
learned some new streams
light tippet isnt need when nymphing
i still love single handed rods too
and a bunch more minor things about bugs, fish behaviour etc..... and much more too go
