I still dont have the permanent reels and lines for the two new vice rods but hopefully will get them ordered in the next month or two. I am paying out of pocket for all the fly gear for our chapter of Heroes on the Water and my wife only has so much patience with me, lol. For now the two new rods got some piscifun swords with airflo universal taper ridge 2.0 lines in 5wt and 8wt, should be fine for loaner gear for a couple months at least. Now I am just going to start building out the bass and crappie fly collection and start finding good deals on fly boxes for everyone. In addition to these setups I also have a st croix imperial 8wt with orvis hydros and bass bug textured line, a path 2 5wt with sword and airflo universal (or bandit) and a moonlit lunar s2 7wt with sword and airflo bandit (or maybe universal) on it. Should be enough for my group since most of them just use spinning gear still and I usually only have 2 or 3 slinging flies at the events. We fish for mostly bass and sometimes crappie with a few trips for redfish and speckled trout a year.

Glad I was able to contribute the 8wt! Hoping your group has a blast with it and I hope to see some outing photos on here. Can’t wait for the ice to thaw here in PA to try out my Miami Vice 5wt that is the brother to your 8wt set.
Damn. When did fly fishing become bisexual? 😂
Damn where can I get a vice tube that goes hard
