Hi I’m new here and this is my first post.
I’m looking for a switch rod for steelhead fishing on the salmon river NY. I have been fishing this river for many years but with a center pin and would like to try out a switch rig. I guess you could say I’m bored of the center pin???
I’m thinking about a Beulah 10’8” 7wt or the Beulah 11’ 8wt ? For this river I think it’s indicator with the occasional swinging a fly? Anyone familiar with this river and what setup would be best? Also what reel would you recommend? I was thinking about a Hatch 9 but don’t know if this reel would be to big or if the Hatch 7 would be big enough to hold a Rio switch chucker line? Or if I should even use that line. Wow do I have questions!!!
Well thanks for all or any info.
