I have Litespeed and Remix reels in 7+, Nautilus X in XL and CCF-XT in 8/10. Do I need a reel as heavy as the CCF for a week on the Aniak? It will stop a truck but is pretty heavy to cast all day. I’ll be fishing 7 and 8 wt rods except if targeting grayling. Thanks for your great website, especially your tying videos. Great help to me in prepping for my last and upcoming trip to AK. 2025-02-17T10:55:37-09:00| Read More

Hi Brad, I’m visiting friends in Palmer this summer and we plan to fish for silvers in the Little Su. We’ve used traditional tackle in the past and inline spinners. I’d like to bring a fly rod. My heaviest is a 7 weight. What size Dolly Llamas do you recommend? And can I use my 7 weight set up? Thanks Adam 2025-01-07T11:53:33-09:00| Read More
