Once you get a shorter light rod you will want to go places where you can use it.

yes, the 3 wt echo glass is a nice rod. I switch between that and my Circa 2 wt for creekin.
Yeah, the CT is fun rod to fish........ very appropriate for most CA creek fishing..... if you know what I mean.
Another 'sleeper' was the first generation TFO 480-2 that sold for $89 or thereabouts. It was TFO's low end model with the green blank. Can't say the entire line up was great, but that one model is pretty darn good...... materials, resins, taper, etc. all matched the design.
It's a lot of fun finding the "diamonds in the rough".
Whatever rod you decide on make sure to buy from a local fly shop. They're going extinct quick. Try not to buy from Cabelas or BPS.
I’d recommend the vice as well

Consider a custom built rod. I fish a 7’9” 4pc 3wt built by Larry Lee from L3 rods. Love it. Although I can’t remember the exact price I’m sure it was less than $200. What I love about his rods are the quality reel seats and grips. The mass produced rods under $200 can sure have cheap components. It sure is nice to visit his shop in Sacramento and pick out exactly what you want
