I only drink diet with Capn for ONE reason...I get heartburn something fierce with regular pop. Other than that though I agree with whomever somewhat and to a small degree. I drink more water than anything...save the soda for mixin with capn. If its LIGHT BEER..it better be a Bud Light Chelada. YEEEEEHAWWWWWWWW...I would say I can't wait to get started but its a bit chilly to glue in the shop (no hot box) so I will watch for a bit, sip some coffee (black of course no cream or sugar for a manly man) and build a couple fly rods until I can get out there.
