Once the reservation
is confirmed, The Fly Shop's clients receive a very complete
"Pre-Trip/Planning Package" that outlines specific tackle
recommendations.
General fly fishing equipment recommendations
include:
Rods
9 to 9 1⁄2 foot models, in 6
wt and 7 wt size range. Favorites include Winston Bllx, Sage Z-Axis,
and The Fly Shop H2O nd GLH2O fly rods
Reels
Ross Vexsis and Cimmaron, Sage 4500 Series,
Galvan Torque, and The Fly Shop’s S4La reels
Lines
Rio Gold Floater, Rio 15’ Density Compensated
Type 3 Sinking Tip
Leaders
7 1⁄2’ tapered leaders of choice,
tapering to 0X and 2X, with tippet spools to match. Some
anglers/guides prefer to use 4-6 feet of Maxima Chameleon tippet
in lieu of a tapered leader – if this is you, bring spools
of 6, 8, 10 and 12 pound material.
