Best Rod for VS150

I just got a sweet deal on a VS150 and I could not turn it down.

Now I am wondering the best rod for it?

I have a triflex 8'6" rated to 2oz
and I have a 1084
and a 1203
I would rather not buy a new one

happy birthday!

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.
