I love the 8' #3 line softer action rods for dry fly small freestone stream fishing.
I really enjoyed turning folks onto an outfit like that.
Many trout anglers have a 9' #5 line 4 piece rod that is fairly fast action so it is not as much fun on small streams.
Years ago I had a new Sage 'Light Line' 279 LL 2 piece (7'9" #2 line) fly rod with an Orvis CFO II reel and a DT2F Peach 444 Cortland line in a Harding & Sons rod and reel case.
I lent it to Don Kohn to take up to a little stream by his house in Grass Valley.
Don came back a few days later and bought the exact complete outfit from me, including the rod & reel case.
Would make a nice Christmas gift?
