In the family, we have a bunch of different rods and reels and stuff. None of it is high quality Orvis Helios and stuff like that but they are pretty nice and they do get the job done. Here is the background: Yesterday I went fishing but in the back of the truck by dads kayak landed on my rod shattering the tip. They don't make the rod anymore. Now I have a normal 9' 5/6 wt rod and a graphite 7 1/2 foot 6 wt rod. I was wondering what would be more appropriate for trout fishing/ small to midsize streams. I. in my opinion, think the 9' rod is two overwhelming. Although I have no problem casting with it, I just think it's too big. I need to know for the fly fishing camp I'm going to, so; Opinions?
