27" brown trout, my largest ever. It was the sub-dominant fish in its pool. After this, I hooked the bigger one, but I couldn't land it.

I have been trying to purchase a silk line to match up with a bamboo rod I built. Looking to buy a DT 6wt. I have tried contacting Cadno and Terenzio and have gotten no response. Anyone have a NIB DT 6wt that they would like to sell? Or does anyone know a US or Canadian fly shop that stocks Cadno or Terenzio fly lines?
