Going gear to fly shouldn't be to bad for you. I'm in the opposite boat, going fly to gear for steelie fishing after a 25 year absence. I'll always have the bug rod with me. Just to much good water on the OP that isn't fly friendly, so why drift on by without fishing it.

s-fish, thanks for the vote of confidence. When I 1st saw this 40+ line I thought... "Great!! Now they have made a line for older guys with bad shoulders, this stuff must be real easy to cast....."

Seriously, thats how my mind works....at times.

Best wishes on the gear-quest, as soon as you get over false casting your #4 spinner you will be fine...
