For months, I have been wanting a Shimano Asquith 8 weight for the winter Redfish season. The other day, I finally pulled the trigger. On the same day, I rigged it up and took it fishing. At the time, the tide was not optimal for Redfish. So, Trout were my target of the day. Thankfully, I got this guy right off the bat. The first of hopefully many.
The Asquith is effortless to cast and added several feet to my casting distance. So far, I love it!
