Can I fly fish with a regular rod?
I have the fly fishing reel, but just a regular bait casting rod. Can i use both of them together to fly fish?
If you have a fairly long (7'+) light-action baitcasting rod, it might work reasonably well. If not, then you could try putting small split shot sinkers on the flies and fish them like a jig.

If your wealth were bodies of water, yours would be a stream off piss and his would be the Pacific Ocean.
I am not fond of the name River for anyone. I am not crazy about place names, fruits, bodies of water, etc being used as children's names. More traditional I guess.
They should know what kind of fish it is.:)
