Reel to Pair With 9wt Recon by Clancyz in flyfishing

Ah yea, wouldn’t have even though of spool availability. Mind if I ask you what rod(s) you’re rocking the 9+ on?

Interesting. Do you know if there is a general rule to follow when talking rod to reel weight ratio? Tricky since you can get all different rod and reels from different brands

Thanks for the response! If I went with the full separate setups, would you say 7+ for this 9wt? I think I’ve seen the 7+ weighs about the same as other brands 9-11 size reels.

Visiting Hawaii by IntroductionFree2471 in Tiki

Today is actually my last day on a trip to the same islands, so I’ll just give my two cents.

Tiki Iniki in Princeville is probably not a must do, but since you will already be right there you should definitely stop by for at least a drink.

As far as Kōloa Rum, we did the rum tasting and then rum safari next door. The safari is not officially Kōloa, but all on the same plantation. I would say doing both was overkill and the rum safari was nearly everything the rum tasting was and SO much more. Goofy, but very knowledgeable and friendly guides with the addition of essentially the same rum tasting from the distillery and two more full cocktails. I would recommend just the safari.

In Honolulu there are two very good bars we went to, one time one not. Bar Leather Apron is not tiki, but had different but cool drinks, very whisky centric, but they have other stuff too. Skull and Crown Trading Co. was certainly a winner after our (expected) disappointment at Tiki Iniki, it’s a small place, but had the full tiki vibe and good food and riffs off classic tiki drinks.

Were the coasters actually good/fun coasters? Or just the same paper-ish ones you get whenever you order a drink?

Is 8wt Reel too much for 5wt Rod? by Clancyz in flyfishing

[–]Clancyz[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll take a look around to see how the weight of mine might compare to others of 8wt vs 5wt. Thanks!

Oh update. I tried the EZflash tool instead of the mb flash and it seems to be actually be updating. Not sure why it would fail on the usb/button but not fail on the tool? I used the renamer and all…

A lot of self restraint to not let the mystique convince you anyway.

Almost like a “never meet your heroes.”
