[saflyfish]

Hi
I really love this rod.I have two questions though:
1.Is it better to cast a 4wt or 5wt line with it?

2.Is the rods action med fast or fast?

Any opinions on this rod welcome...

Thanks

Hello, SAFLYFISH!

The Horizon is a great rod. It's very powerful, so it'll cast either line you mentioned.

If you're going to be making longer casts, I'd stick with the WF4 line for this rod. On the other hand, if you're making short casts, the WF5 will load this rod easily.

This is a fast-action rod and it's great for big water and fishing in windy conditions.

See ya,

Fred

I also love this rod as does my wife. It is definitely a fast action rod. Mine is a 5 wght. and I use a 5 wght.line asI fish still waters and relativly large rivers where long casts are a frequent preference.

I also fish a HS series 9' 5wght 2pc. I have tried a 6whgt line on it and it just didnt load right for me but with the 5 whgt it was just right. You might try a 4.5 weight line.
