{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: 12 Wt too specialized?

If I'm using a 12wt, I'm with a guide who is likely key to any kind of hookup.  And the reality is, all the guides have good to great gear that they usually feed more confident in (backing, leader, line, etc) for those specialzed situations.  A 12 wt for Tarpon might be set up very differently than one for salmon.  A reel for that type of fish can also be very expensive (and seldom used).  If I lived in Florida and had my own boat, I'd add a 12wt, but not otherwise.  I've found the ECHO rods to be terrific and a good value.
