Hello everyone, I am looking to build a 10 wt fly rod for use on the flats for permit and light tarpon. I am wanting a black seat with a blue woven graphite insert similar to the seat on the NRX line. Does anyone have any recommendations? I will be putting a Tibor Riptide on it. Thanks for any help.
