Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles opinion of 7mm-08 rem. vs 308

For cutts, you start out with the high end St Croix blank in a 4 Wt (9 footer for all around use) Then spend another 150 bucks on hardware and have your local rod-builder make ya's one. I've been spanking Cutties with the same rod for 6 years now.

Even on a 4 wt, the 2 footer I caught last Sunday was a total rodeo. I had to let him run into the backing twice before I could land him. Like Ingwe says, there's something about light tackle. You need to know you're game or you're going to lose a lot of schitt.
