And although the Raven is not cheap, you wouldn't be overcome with tears of grief or need to take out a new line of credit as you might for other brands, if you accidentally trip and smash your raven during your first season. That never happens anyway... at least not to me.

A good outfit to grow into, and something you don't necessarily need to grow out of any time soon.... fought lots of nice 'bows on the same gear in NW Ontario and Niagara. I really think you're going to enjoy yourself. I jumped into centerpin about 5 years ago and I put my fly rod down (gasp! call a doctor!) for steelhead season in favour of what you have. I think you'll enjoy casting on an empty stretch of water more than on the lawn, and you might even catch something on the water.

Hello everyone, I am new to this site and area and have been to a couple creeks here and Oakville but have not had a lot of luck. Fishing used to be a big part of my life which I shared with my grandfather but as I got older and started a family had less time to get out. I am again returning to sport and have a renewed passion and will admit a small obsession with getting into some trout and salmon. I have been to 40 mile and 20 mile but not adventured to far as most times it is with my son and he is only 3. If anyone can help me out I have been reading the treads and can really respect your imput into where I should be looking and at what times of the year, thank you.[attachment=9342:_DSF0168.JPG]

It's been 10 years since, but try the creek that flows under the QEW highway RIGHT in Grimsby. Decent rainbows there back then. Used to park north of the highway and walk under the tunnel and fished right under the highway. It's small water, shallow, and can be quite dark after a good rain, but my brother and I pulled several nice fish.

Sadly, its been a very long time!

Best of luck!

6' 3wt St. Croix Avid is a great starter for the task

Love the carp reflection photo.
Looks like one hell of a good summer.
You sir, are addicted
Keep up the fine work.
Try a 2-3wt for brookies on dries. It's hilarious, especially when you hook at 12 incher.
