Mike I did buy it new.
I taught a fly tying class at a local sports shop and took the DO as partial payment for class.
But I always wanted the little Lodge 8.
I think its the perfect size for a lot of stuff for two people.
And its easier to pack!

Hi Walter,

My 8" and 10" ovens are my favorites. When I camp solo or with one other person, they are just the right size. Big iron is good for crowds but not for one or two.

That pot roast sure looks good! It's a great DO meal since you can cook everything in a single oven.

On a side note, yesterday I took a fly fishing class offered by the Nevada Department of Wildlife. It was a lot of fun. I haven't fished since I was little and my dad would take me. He would get frustrated because I would lose all his good lures in the bushes. I'm not sure yet if I'm going to try to fly fish or not. I love fresh trout. And with the new tear I would like to do some traveling up north. Sounds like a good combination.

Joanne,
My first oven was the 10" from Horrible Freight and it seems to work fine but I really really really wanted the Lodge 8" oven. For the 2 of us it seems like its going to be perfect. I bought a Rump Roast at the store and was able to cut it into 3 pieces. So I expect we will be having Pot roast again in the near future. (We love it)

Fly fishing can be a lot of fun. Its kind of addictive, like cooking with Iron.
I love fresh trout too but I'm 600 mile from the nearest trout stream. You might consider fly fishing for panfish. (bluegills). They seem to be everywhere and readily take a fly. And best of all they are a blast to catch! You could use the same set up for bluegills that you would for trout.
Give it a try.

Walter

Good job!
