For Utah I would have to say the Wiper pulls better than any other. At least for a game fish.

It makes you wonder if those who claim the Jack Crevale to be the pound-for-pound strongest fish have ever considered a Wiper?
Do they even know that wipers exist?
I have to admit, being the big trout fan that I am (alwasy felt like a good ol' rainbow trout pulled and fought as good as anything), that I've never had a fish hit as hard as the wipers that I've caught!
'course, I'm not counting the fresh 20lb chums I've caught on my fly rod either! If you're wondering what that's like, try hooking your fly to a cannonball, then shooting that cannonball out of the cannon!
hang on, and keep your knuckles out of the way of your reel handle!
