FLY FISHING: what is the best balanced rod> reel> line> combination?
eg SAGE TCR 9 FT ORVIS REEL CORTLAND LINE
I go fishing on a 25 sq acre lake for rainbow trout. I find constant casting abit tedious so I am looking for a rod that is powerful and easy to cast with. Will be grateful for any advice..
Price does not matter..!
Thanks in Advance..
e.b I currently have all the tackle except a rod.Last one broke after a fight with a fly caught on a ankor rope I am basically looking for something that is easy to cast and that cast long distances with a straight leader. I would like somebody to suggest the perfect balance/combo that will be a good allrounder for every condition...eg windy etc. I do mainly lake fishing off a boat. I hear the sharkskin lines are awesome so I might invest in one. Thanks for your answers.
A helpful answer requires more information from you.
Tackle is selected according to the fishing conditions. You say you're fishing a small lake for trout but give no other information. Is it windy? Do you fish from shore, boat, or tube? Are you typically fishing midges and the like...or do you fish streamers & leeches? How far out do you find yourself needing to cast/fish? Are you fishing a floating, sinking, or sink-tip line?
And about the casting...what specifically do you find difficult? Do you truly believe a different rod is what you need...or are you somewhat limited by your current casting ability? You mention "constant casting," which is something that doesn't typically happen when fly fishing for trout in stillwaters. Fishing midges, leeches, and streamers (the three most common forage imitations for stillwater trout) is a slow, methodical game. You shouldn't be casting constantly.
I'm not trying to be difficult with you, rather just trying to help.
As for rods, what are you currently using? If your current rod is a bit stout for you, you could be getting fatigued and frustrated. If it's a bit undergunned for the fishing conditions, you can tire out as well. Is it possible your current rod is worthy, but you'd do well to go with a different line? If it's a "good" rod (nice taper/materials/construction in an suitable length/weight) you'd be amazed the difference a new line of slightly different configuration can make. Cheap, poorly designed rods always cast like clubs (or noodles), though; the best lines in existence make little difference.
There is no magic bullet for tackle selection. Finding the perfect outfit is a quest. You can throw all your money at it, but that doesn't guarantee results...or perfection. Take your time, find somewhere to test cast some possibilites, and don't be duped by ads or marketing lines. FYI, the TCR has merit in the right hands in unlikely conditions, but it's not what most guys would describe as a great or enjoyable fishing tool.
