After a humbling first year as a Trout Lout, Rich Thomas decides to upgrade his rod and reel and get some casting lessons. Faced with the daunting task of presenting a size 14 Hendrickson dry fly to those finicky West Branch browns this May, Rich was overheard at Ramsey Outdoors while ordering his new gear as saying “nothing gets a fly out there like a Barbie high modulus graphite rod! These are not only fine performing rods capable of lifting heavy fish, but you look really cool on the water”.

That’s nothing. I’m sporting a new SpongeBob SquarePants spey rod that really gets them out there. Take a look…

I was just dancing my ass off in my office. Hope nobody was walking by! LMAO
What say you Lout Thomas - how does the Barbie graphite perform on dem big Delaware browns??? Can you get a good mend with the shorter rod? I realize you have a lot of experience with a short rod.
RS

I can’t get this damned song out of my head. I think we have a new Lout’s theme song.
If only we could witness the Roytos brothers “busting a move” around the campfire this year I can die and go to Heaven! Bring your boom boxes.

Good thing those hendrickson flies have a pinkish hue to them they will match his outfit perfectly.
Rich just remember, it’s not the size that matters, just the man behind it!
