Reel for TFO 5wt ?
I got a TFO pro2 5 wt 8.6' rod. Looking at spending $100 +/- Any suggestions ? I'm going to a fly expo tomorrow and hope to find a deal. I do have a Cortland Retro 1 and a Pflueger Trion 34 and am thinking of just getting spare spools for them but will they hold a 5wt and if so how much backing ? I'm using this for small stream sml.mouth bass. Thanks.

Re: Reel for TFO 5wt ?
I will suggest the LL bean Quest LA reel in size 2. I just got one in and it fits my 8'6'' 5wt perfectly.

Re: Reel for TFO 5wt ?
First thought that comes to mind in that price range for that rod
1) Allen trout if they are at the show. I have one on my Zaxis and it is solid for the price 2) Lamson Konic II , solid drag and with the new coating to protect it from dings since it is a cast reel.
