Domtesta,

Please don't buy a 12Wt setup. I have one and never use it! you are welcome to bring it on Mako Bobs Oct trip to try out. Hopefully you will need it! I have the reel and an intermediate clear tropical line for it (Tarpon in FL).

It is a 3pc Sage 9' 13Wt (RPLXi) and a Pflueger president 12Wt reel w/ 500yds of 50lb braid backing.

I use an 8wt personally. I just use heavier tippet if the fish get big. I'm not sure I could even fish much heavier than 30lb from a kayak. A big barracuda on 20lb pretty much kicked my ass in FL.
