There should be a place on the internet that you can get together with other people who like to fish and talk about rod and reels and what works for which fish. It could even be like a forum where it's broken down by fish species. Could prob be successful.

I can make assumptions about your character based on the plethora of ridiculous decisions you've posted about making, but I choose not to.

I answered your other post in the fly section.
You can avoid having ulcers by adapting to the situation: If you fall in the mud puddle, check your pockets for fish. ~Unknown
Open your eyes & look within, are you satisfied with the life youre living.
No matter how good or bad you have it, wake up each day thankful for your life. Someone somewhere else is desperately fighting for theirs.

Carp fly fishing?
Wouldn't that be a fight. Landing a 30 carp on a fly pole.
Sounds like fun.

Another question that I have, How will a 9f rod work for Redfish? you need to make sure the line weight and the rod weight match up. It looks like the line is a 5wt. and you have not indicated what wt. the rod is. And a 5wt. would be seriously undermanned for a redfish. Are you familiar, at all, with flyfishing terminology? You'll want to do that.
