FG, will I be ok to use the 2wt reel on a 3 or 4wt rod? The guy @ Bass Pro Shops said to sell the Orvis battenkill to finance a combo purchase. Maybe I will. You'd recomend that I go with a 3/4wt, then?
I will be mostly using the rig for panfish and small trout in local ponds (Las Vegas) and for some streams in Utah (trout under 2lbs). I practice C&R mostly so I wouldn't want to be killing them. The reason I lean toward ultralight is that i don't come across big fish very often. I understand your point though, DR & FG.
I'll check those out Macfly, thx for the link.
Oh yeah, the reel did come loaded with 2wt Scientific Angler Mastery Series Streamer WF-200-S sinking fly line.
Thanks again to all for the advice.
Eric
