    I'm very very interested. How does it work with a 7 Weight 10 Foot steelheading rod? Is it big enough?

    From Orvis:
    20-lb. Dacron
    WF5: 150
    WF6: 125
    WF7: 100

    I had a 7wt line on it using a 7wt 9ft. Not a ton of backing, but the drag is amazing which is why I bought it.

    Cheers,

    Z

    Thank you, ZWhit. I'm going to have to pass, but this is an amazing deal. I hope someone takes you up on it.
