I do that. I had a little trouble getting the reel to fit in the reel seats on my fly rod. It is a 3wt. and has a small seat. I ended up buying a small spinning reel at BPS that fit-but snug. I also use a 5wt. G.Loomis rod some and the reels fit it better. I really like using the fly rods! I have thought about using the fly reels and leaving the fly line on and tying a 4 or 6 lb. leader on the end. That way when you catch a fish you could just pull in the line like you do when actually flyfishing and not have to reset your depth. Do you use them to flyfish any? I try to get up to North Arkansas as often as I can...there is some really good trout water up there.
