OK...have been doing pretty good with my redington crosswater 7' 6" 4wt outfit...It has been casting some tight loops and is very handy but I've known for a while(2 weeks...just started ff for trout 3/31/14) I should have bought the 9' 5wt. I was chest deep the other day and was getting all kinds of action on the top but just didn't feel I had the power to get a hookup @ 30 ft...I want so bad to get my first dry fly fish...I'm also sure the olive woolybugger/SJ worm rig I've been catching fish on would be loads better with a fast 9' rod...So tonight I got a redington torrent 9' 5wt tonight on eBay for $99.99...anyhow...my budget is stretched right now...I was thinking I would buy a 5wt line for my crosswater reel and fish my 7' 4wt overlined for now...using the same reel for both..I've read it's often nice to have a small stream rod overlined...what line would be good for both?...I think the torrent is kind of fast.
