Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Orvis rods/line

I have the Recon and Clearwater. I'll grab either from the boat or garage when heading out. Cork and reel seat are about the only difference noticeable when fishing. Get the Bankshot floating line. 

I'll fish just about any rod regardless of cost or marketing. They all catch fish. Warranty to me is most important. 

I do like the recon 7'11" rod.

Looking for a 9' 8wt rod and line primarily for lmb and stripers on the Potomac tributaries and the Rapp with occasional salt water use.  Accuracy, durability, feel, and fun to fish a priority over broomstick/hero casts.  Planning a trip to Orvis anyway for fly tying material so I'm gonna check out what they've got, but I'm not real familiar with their stuff.  In terms of real world fishing is there much of a difference between the Clearwater and Recon?  Is the H3 THAT much better that it's worth saving up for?  Do they have a recommended WF line for bass flies? Any fly shop is a not fun drive on 95 for me, so any advice I can get here on rods or line to go with it is really appreciated.  Hope this isn't beating a dead horse, thanks!
