I have an 8 weight fly rod and I was considering doing some fly fishing for Chinook this year as well as Coho. I got to thinking, is this going to be a heavy enough fly rod for Chinook at all or Coho in fast water? I normaly use it for Steelhead but really want to try and get a couple salmon on the fly while the no bait rule is in effect and throughout the season.

Any thoughts?
