It reached 100 degrees here today. I waited until 7 PM to hit the pond. It was still in the 90s but the gills and a few others were biting. I got to try out my new (old) Garcia Conolon 2121, the matching ultralight rod for my Mitchell 309. The combo works beautifully together and is perfectly balanced. It handled the hard pulling catfish with ease. This setup must have been the Bee's Knees in the early 1960s!
