I recently aquired the abovementioned Beulah rod Brand new (on CL) and was wondering if you all deem it acceptable to go after our smaller valley steelhead.
I cast it on the grass and i will tell you its far heavier than many of the 6wts i have owned/cast. Its heavier than the TFO 7wt pro and far far (far) heavier than the 80's orvis 6wt unsanded graphite I own.
Its funny, the old what weight for fish doesnt seem to apply as builders seem to have 'weighted up' and and old 6wt doesnt compare to a new 6wt.
If not does anyone have any suggestions on how to replace this with the appropriate weight? I do love the way this rod casts.
Thanks for the input, Jim
