What's your idea for a good bonefish rod/reel?

I use a 4-piece 8wt Sage Z-Axis tip action with a 9wt sharkskin line
and an Abel Super 8 reel. Works for me.

RW,

Have you used the sharkskin in a 5 weight doing NF of the Clearwater type
fishing? If so, what do you think and would you recommend it?

If others have had experience with the Sharkskin, I would like to here what
you have to say about it.

TIA,
JT

I've only used sharkskin on my 8wt and 12wt. If you do a lot of
stripping (which you do in sal****er) it's important to use a glove or
tape on your fingers. The line will rip your skin.

I had an asshole guide

Er, well, if you could find it without both hands and a map, maybe you wouldn't
need a guide, either...oh, wait...to whose asshole were you hoping to be
guided...?

in Mexico who claimed that the noise the line
made was spooking fish. What bull****. It was just an excuse for not
getting me into many fish.

Seriously, though, that doesn't seem as ridiculous as might sounds, at least in
principle. *First, I readily acknowledge that I've never, AFAIK, been diving
near Sharkskin line while someone was stripping it through rod guides (or
otherwise), but it at least seems _plausible_ that such "noise"/vibration
_could_ be transmitted in such fashion. *I don't know if you dive, but if you
do, you know first-hand about sound transmission, esp. in shallow water over a
flat, sandy-bottom. *What were the general conditions and just how much "noise"/
vibration was occurring?
