New striper rig for Christmas!

[Tracy Chimenti]

I've decided to ask for a striper fly rod and reel for Christmas. I have a Powell 9/10 with a nice Ross reel on it that I use with LC13. I was thinking about possibly another 9/10 rig with two spools-- one line for top-water, the other line for shallower application-- fishing shallower runs/flats on the rivers, estuaries. I think I have read where Andy and some other guys use a slower sinking line (besides the old lead bomb) to fish with more finesse. Anyway, any info. you can give me would be great. (Bill, we're going Christmas shopping on Monday, and I have to pick-up some more LC13 heads anyways so we'll be dropping by)!

Originally I was going to ask for 20 pieces lf sheet rock. Then I realized I was still in my mid-life crisis and that it was OK to be selfish.

ALSO... NEITHER CABELAS OR SPORTSMAN'S WHAREHOUSE HAVE LC13.

For that "other" outfit I think Andy, who will be there Monday, would recommend a new Rio Outbound Short coldwater floater (top water) and clear intermediate for slow winter retrieves with lighter 'swimmier' flies.

We might still have some great buys in our 50% off area?

Thanks Bill. I will see Andy Monday then.
