... What are some good reels for king salmon on a 10 weight ticr? Is a orvis battenkill 5 a good reel? No reel suggestion, but did you consider the TFO TiCr-X in 8 weight? The X "series" rods (a 5- and 8-weight) are supposed to even faster than the regular TiCrs - assumning you want that. |

... What are some good reels for king salmon on a 10 weight ticr? Is a orvis battenkill 5 a good reel? I use a Battenkill LA V on my TiCr 8 wt. I believe I would step up to the LA VI for a 10 wt. I've used my LA V for almost two years with no complaints. It recoveres line rapidly, the drag is acceptable, and it is durable though light. For the money, not a bad reel. -- Stev Lenon 91B20 '68-'69 Drowning flies to Dark Star http://web.tampabay.rr.com/stevglo/i...age92kword.htm |
