I am told my new Scott T2H will be here any day! ONly problem is I am guiding every day and will have no time to play with it . Plus I have to pick up a line and reel for it also. Time to shop

[jefff]

I'll break it in for you.

If you were closer I'd let you;)

Sweet stick! What length and weight? What are you going to line it with?

[Kevin McKay]

T2h 1085/4

An ultralight rod that can fished either single handed or two handed for half pounders and for applying two handed techniques on the trout stream.

Line Recommendations (+/- 10%)
Skagit: 280 gr.
Scandi: 280 gr.

not sure on line

No worries Kevin I have started looking for volunteers on the Facebook side of MFF to ensure your rod is thoroughly tested while you focus on guiding. I am close enough to you and you can drop it off with enough cash for reel and line (make sure to leave enough, I know you want the best) I will pass it down through the list of volunteers so everyone gets a chance to evaluate this new rod. By time you are finished the season you will have a report on your rod. I bet we could have it used from Ft. Kent to someplace in Mass by late October. Oh, and box of the secret guide flies would help.

Try the switch line from Rio. I'm using one on my 11' 9" #4 and like it.

You're going to have some fun with that one! She'll be a blast on just about anything in freshwater here. You'll have to give us a report soon.

Got my G2 8'8" 4 weight on Thursday,still waiting for the switch, Tait already claimed the G2

[Kevin McKay]

I got it but no line or reel

i just revived the Rio switch line, just need to put it on a 5 plus and I am good to go

Jim, is that 11'9" #4 the Decho? I've been using a 6wt airflo 40+ and it works well but I'm always curious to hear about other lines.

Yes it is Joe. I've found that line to be a good all around line. I've used it for dries, swinging streamers, and indicator fishing. I've also used the heaviest 7 1/2' Versileader on it and it worked well.

Kevin, did you go with the 4/5 or the 5/6? How much backing did you get on the 5+ with that line, and how did it balance on the rod.

I'm considering an L2H 11' #5 with a Rio Switch Line, but still deciding between a 5+ MA or a 7+ LA from Hatch.

[Kevin McKay]

I had the Tom at Eldredge bros put the backing on,not sure what he ended up doing,my 5 plus is a large arbor,wish it was a mid but had no time to get another spool. It is the 5/6 Rio line

I am taking it steeled fishing this year, i think 5 plus balances it better than a 7
