Thanks for your demonstration and commentary! I have a 5 weight 9-foot model with a Hatch Plus 4 reel loaded with a WF-5 Airflo Superflo Universal taper and love the performance. I am looking to buy the 10 foot 6 weight to use on the Tongariro River but at present, I am undecided. Would this be a good investment? Sorry I can't buy from you as I'm down-under in NZ, Kind Regards
I fish the 5-weight Centric and a Plus 4 Hatch reel with a Superflo Universal Taper WF-5 and love every minute of it. Im looking at a10' 6-weight for the Tongariro River but haven't had enough advise to take the plunge yet. Any thoughts? Regards from down-under in NZ.
I am currently sitting behind a pair of the Agitator BRS 12 foot 3.25 tc rods. A great rod for the price. I have mine paired with Daiwa Castizm 25 QDA mini-pit reels.
Splendid rods.. and much underrated. I got both 10’ #7 and #8 super stream and small river rods for Seatrout and Salmon.. pure casting machines. Cast well with Guideline ULS heads (16g for #7 and 18g for #8)
The Ultraclick is interesting - as you pointed out, Hardy have designed these for light stream fishing. However, I bought one for ultralight hiking because it's the lightest full-frame wide-arbour reel available (70g in the 5000 size), which makes easy work of my 5-wt rod and line, and who needs a full drag for wild UK trout fishing? It's a fly-fishing backpacker's dream come true - thanks Hardy!
Isn't that volantis lin #6 weight the equivalent of a standard eight weight? Love Scott rods and looking at the 9ft 6 inch #6 and the right and a half four weight.
This line is a shooting head style line which means the forward diameter would be much heavier than a standard WF line. However the overall weight would be equivalent to a standard WF6 line. If you would like a rod we can help you out, we have the 9'6" #6 in stock.
Hi Keith we have ran out of 10' #7 however we do have the 10' #8 in stock with 25% off plus a free floating line. For the reel we could do a Greys FIN reel. If you want to give us a call on 028 2585 0000 we can go through options and sort you out. Postage will be FREE over £100.
