I just bought torrent 789 should have it by Mon for wed .

How many does that make now Fred? lol.

I seriously would want another torrent/tradwind combo if i wasn't saving up for a kayak right now.

I have 350 grain depth charge on its way and would love it to have its own reel lol.

God this stuff is dangerous....

Reel came in today Steve got a spool with it also . I'm not going to disclose that kind of incriminating information . But That line works great for me on the hook I can cast 100' feet with that line with a wind

Bermuda tapered Wulff line?

 

[trowpa]

Fred - and a spool too! lol you're out of control

I've got two torrents -

Torrent A: Bermuda TT floating
Torrent B: TT intermediate

Wondering which i should put the depth charge on.

Right now i'm considering Replacing the intermediate with the depth charge leaving me with a floating and a Sinktip/intermediate. ANd i'll put the intermediate in storage.

Can you think of a reason i should do it the other way? (and end up with an intermediate and a sinktip/intermediate?

Wulff triangle tapers are kick butt,
For Saltwater i use a Teeny 350 and a Monic Intermediate Slime line both are 9 wt lines,on the jetties intermediate lines reign supreme,on a boat i prefer a Teeny, I also have a Airflo Depth Charge 400,rods i use are a Gloomis GL4 9' 9 wt an a Redington 9' 11 weight.
The Gl4 is the Perfect Salmon River king rod for me,puts every fish under my control an does what i need to up there,whether it was the ol half a flyline thing or running line thing to the current 9 wt Wullf Triangle Taper that kicks butt,
i wish i had a Stiffer stick like a Gloomis GLX for slatwater i have had days on the salt where i have literally beat my self to death
The GL4 great steelhead rod,not ideal for salt IMHO but i love it.
I need a stiffer stick to beat the crap out of the wind.

I would scrap the floating. Having the Orvis depth charge you don't need a sink tip . Int and sinking are best lines for the salt . You could always buy a matching spool lol
