Fly Rod

I need a recommendation.

10wt, 9 or 10' fly rod. I got a Sage Spectrum C reel for my B-day.

No boat, back in the suds.

Boy that’s a challenge for us old farts, I know my shoulder would be screaming if I picked up any fly rod, let alone a ten weight.

What is the reel size? 7/8 or 9/10? A 9wt rod is plenty for all the fish up here.Temple Fork Outfitters are medium priced rods and good warranty service.What action do you like? Fast,medium.etc. What type of flies do plan on tossing? Boat Beach etc. Much more info. needed.
Those are pretty light reels,good drags, not machined.
