New Fly Rod 8 Weight Recommendations
 

I am looking to buy an 8-weight 9-foot fly rod for fresh water fishing
for Bass, Stripers, and maybe an Alaska trip in 2006. I have two Sage
RPL rods in 5 weight, one 4 weight and one 3 weight. I'm not stuck or
set to buy a Sage rod and really only want to spend $250.00. The rod
will end up with a Flylogic 890 reel on it.

I would like recommendations. So far my friends have made
recommendations for a St Croix, Loomis G2 or Sage Discovery rod. I
would like to hear the recommendations from this group.

Thanks, Art

#1 recommendation: make it a five piece so you won't have to worry about
getting it on and off airplanes.

#2 recommendation: I adore my Winston 9/8 BL-5.

Check out the Powell rod site, my $80 8 weight arrived today, and it will do
just fine for the price.
