kjackson Posted August 15, 2022 Posted August 15, 2022 I know it's not likely, but I have a 12-weight rod, a G.Loomis CrossCurrent, that I'm going to sell. I realize it's like using a .50 caliber to hunt whitetails for fishing around here, but I thought I'd check here first. I have a matching Orvis Vortex reel and SA line to match it.

Ham Posted August 15, 2022 Posted August 15, 2022 Dave should 100% buy it. There are Alligator Gar to be caught and Sharks and other things that go bump in the night Every Saint has a past, every Sinner has a future. On Instagram @hamneedstofish
Gavin Posted August 15, 2022 Posted August 15, 2022 Have a buddy who buys & sells a bunch of used & collectible fly tackle I’ll PM you his number.
FishnDave Posted August 16, 2022 Posted August 16, 2022 @Ham should 200% buy it. So I can BORROW it.   Johnsfolly and BilletHead 1 1
jdmidwest Posted August 16, 2022 Posted August 16, 2022 Even fishing for silvers in Alaska tossing a big salmon fly, my 7 weight handled the load of up to 20+ lb fish. I don't know what you would use a 12 weight outside of saltwater for.

I have no idea.  I thought I would see if there was any interest here before I got serious about finding anew home for this rig.  I have several fly rods that are collectible, and I will be unloading them somewhere this year possibly.  For those who would ask-- I have an unused Wright & Mcill bamboo, another bamboo that was a prototype built for the Eddie Bauer store back when they sold more than clothing, a Hardy glass rod and a couple of G.Loomis rods that are extras.
