RE: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Cabo San Lucas and 10wt Suggestions?

Just a personal opinion.  I have one of the clearwaters from years ago, it’s a 5 wt.  Best rod I ever bought.  A year or 2 back I bought a 8 wt Clearwater for a trip to Alaska.  It was by far the worse rod ive boughten.

I just booked a trip to Cabo and figured I should probably gear up sooner rather than later. I'm looking for a decent (read: cheap) 10wt to up my arsenal to handle some roosters, dorado, small tuna and the like.  I see some great deals online for some older Sage RPLX and RPLXis ($2-250) but have doubts on used gear for the warranty concerns.  I'm familiar with TFO's TiCr/x and Bluewater lines and would probably go that route if going new -- I have a TiCr 8wt that I really like.  Any guidance for specific rods this wayward fly slinger should consider test driving in the sub $250 range?

 

Also, I'm researching guides for an inshore and an offshore trip.  Anyone have some knowledge on guides in that neck of the woods?

 

Thanks.
