New to the larger species fly fishing game so I'm not exactly sure what I need. I have an 8 weight rod that I use for bass and the occational pike and was recently reading an article that said an 8 weight rod is optimal with a fly ranging from 1/0 to 12. Now some of the Pike flies I have/want are upwards of 4/0 so I guess my question is would I be better off fishing these larger flies with a 10 or even 12 weight rod or can my 8 weight handle something that big?
