Hi all, I'm relatively new member and have been learning a ton lurking through the threads the past several months. I'm from CT but am currently a senior at Bucknell. I picked up fly fishing this past summer and have caught the bug ever since. Right now, I have a 7'6" 3 wt Echo Base which has been great for the small streams around me at home and the many brookie streams I've been exploring in Union/Centre county. With only a few months left until I graduate, I'd love to try my hand at smallies in the Susquehanna (5 min walk from campus) as well as trout in some of the larger rivers like Penns. From what I've read seems like a 6-7 wt would be ideal for bass, but might be too much for trout. Could I get away with a 5wt for both scenarios or does anyone have any rod recommendations? Thanks
