Updating The Rodfather Redfish Attack System 30Sep22

I learned on our trip with Haine to Rockport last March for redfish that the Rodfather Redfish, while a great rod, could not be cast well with the Aoka XS 7.8 loaded with SA WF8F line. The rod is just too strong with a measured intrinsic power of 3320 grains. The head of the SA line I had attempted to use was just 2730 grains. I borrowed Rob's reel & WF9F Orvis line and it was dreamy. Others thought so too. So, I repurposed the Aoka 7.8 onto the Rodfather Colorado, now gone ~ lost in the parking area of the Blue River below Green Mtn Rez, RIP.  I acquired an Aoka XS 9.10 reel, in a rod-match teal, as well as some Rio Winter Redfish line in WF9F, with a 3840 grain head. The new system is a skosh heavier but balances great and shoots quickly and like a demon ~ I wasn't able to not shoot to the end of my spare line. I am now fully reloaded for more spring TX Redfish.
