Advertises a British tackle retailer via eBay, thus some advice
is unsuited for N.Americans and some generally suspect.
1. Addressed to people who "like the idea of fly fi****ng,"
it recommends starter outfits priced $200 to $500. I do
not know the English market but starter outfits sell in
N.America for $50 to $200.
2. The picture shows a two-handed rod, not used in
N.America except for heavy saltwater s****t.
3. The text recommends buying fly sets preselected
for either river or stillwater fi****ng: it does not recommend
choosing flies at local tackle shops.
Perhaps this is why the poster used an anonymous remailer.
