Default 7/8wt rod for Alaska?

I went to Orvis last night and picked up the Battenkill Mid Arbor reel
in 9/10 wt and titanium finish, nice reel. Came out to $202 with
200yds of 20lb backing and a 8wt Orvis Power Taper fly line.

I figured I'd eventually get around to some sal****er fishing so went
with this reel.

Thanks to all who chimed in,

Matt Mika
