On this episode we chat about the the history of the company, Brooks and the Cortland employees passion for fly fishing that is the driving force behind what we see today.  On the tech side we get into the tough questions regarding grain weights and head design as they relate to modern flyfishing techniques, AFTMA recommendations, matching flylines up with rods and and a little bit about backings that you probably didn't know about.  Also on this show, we flex the new lapel microphones, and we also play a game called "what is it" that leads to some serious hand washing before eating.  This show is brought to you by Nervous Water, Kettafly Apparel and Beast Brushes
