I just got a killer deal on a Winston Passport 9' 5wt and am going to use my Teton Tioga #5 reel on that.
My old St. Croix Imperial 8' 4/5wt will be fished with a 5wt line and can also use this reel.
Need reels for the following rods:
Sage RPL 8'6" 2wt
Sage SP 7' 6" 3wt
St. Croix Avid 6' 3wt
St. Croix Avid 8' 4wt
I ordered a Lamson Konic 1.5 which is designed for 3 & 4wt. It is too heavy for the 6' 3wt but balances out the two Sages well.
I also ordered a Redington Rise 3/4 and it does ok on the 2 Sages but is also too heavy for the 6' 3wt.
Thinking of ordering a Sage 2230 for the 7'6" 3wt Sage.
http://www.sageflyfish.com/fly-fishing-reels/all-water/2200/After talking with the Sage technicians I plan on fishing the 8'6" 2wt with a 3wt line. The old guy I got it from said that's how he fished it. So, I'm looking for one good reel that can share time between the 2 Sage rods.
When my St. Croix Avid 8' 4wt gets back from the factory I'm thinking the Konic 1.5 may work well on there.
I think I'm going to have to go with a click & pawl old-school reel (light) on the 6' 3wt.
Throw some suggestions out there!
I'm new at this and I've been bitten badly with the bug!
Thanks.
