    It comes of being a non-traditional student (again).

    The main arugment for a DT that I can think of is that you can turn it around after chewing up one end, so essentially you can buy half as many lines.  That being said, here in Kansas the wind is usually blowing hard enough to twist your ears, so a DT is a pain.  I’ve been using all WF since I got here.  When I get back to Arkansas and spend more time on the little Ozark streams chasing smallmouth fifteen feet away, I’ll have at least a couple of DTs again.  For now though, WF is the way to go up here.

    As for brands, it’s not stylish, but the Cabela’s Prestige works well without being too overspecialized.  It is a screaming bright color though.  If you are after a sinking line, they have a couple of No Vis options avaliable.

    I’m from the Arkansas Ozarks, so Redneck is the norm for me.  I’ll just say that two days ago I made a rod case for a 3 piece cane rod from Schedule 40 PVC pipe.  36″ pipe, cap on one end, cleanout fitting with threaded cap on the other, painted green and black camo.  What’s great is by looking at it lying my ’93 Ford pickup, no one would guess there is a 70 year old split cane rod inside!!
