WTB 9'6 or 10' 8 wt. and reel - 06/11/07 01:16 AM

Looking to try some nymphing for steelhead and swinging for chummers this coming fall and winter and am looking for a good used fly rod. It will be my first bug rod so I need a reel too. Thanks-Tom

$200.00 -300.00 is what I'd like to spend but could spend more if I was persuaded with something really nice-T.

Have you looked at a Redington CPS? you should head to the fly shop in Poulsbo and check out the rods over there.

i really dont know...

i really want a st croix 9;6" 4-10 casting rod. to match my new spinning rod.

im not to firm on the price. although they are hardly used and in very good condition...and the only reason im selling the line and reel is because im trading my 8wt for a custom tied fast action 6wt.

so i have no real need for the 8wt line and reel...
