Have an 8wt 4pc Sage z-axis, Abel Super 8 reel, Sharkskin line --
great bonefish rig.
Have a 12wt Orvis Helios, Galvan reel. Lightweight rig for a 12wt, but
still a workout to cast.
I need 10wt rig -- rod, reel, line. The reel and the line are settled.
The line is Sharkskin, 10 or 11wt.
The reel is Waterworks VANQUISH 10,http://waterworks-lamson.com/products/vanquish/
Waterworks is an interesting local company. Made in Idaho, America.
Started as cutting-edge mountain bike designers. Thought about fly
reels, bought Lamson, and now they're making the sweetest form-follows-
function reels I've ever seen. Their drag system alone is superb
compared to the old-style cork crap you get with Tibor and Abel. And
when they say large arbor, they mean REALLY large arbor. Drag and
takeup are IMO the most important features for the reel of my choice.
I'm undecided about the rod. Suggestions?
Got an Albright A-5 5 piece 9' 10wt, never used. If you want to
borrow it, can do. Can send along a Cabelas Prestige line (sal****er)
in a WF 10 to compliment it, reel too. None have been near water and
unless the orcas renew their annual migration up the Missouri to the
Platte after the Sandhill cranes, ain't got nothing to us it on.
Send me your addy and its in the mail.

Also got a full sink line around here somewhere that should match the
rod.
