Hey all, I'm kicking around the idea of getting a 10' rod mainly for nymphing. I've never used anything more than a 9' rod on the water and I can see where extra length could give me an advantage but never had the opportunity to try it out. I've been told by a few folks and also read that it really does give an advantage but I'd like to hear your thoughts and experiences ? IE; Does the extra length give enough of an advantage to justify leaving my 9' rod in the truck when I head to the water ? Is it more difficult to net/land a fish with a 10 footer ? And also, if the fish start looking up while I'm on the water will I still be able to throw dries with a 10' rod ? I know that stream conditions and personal preference comes into play in the matter but just speaking in general terms. Any feedback is appreciated. Thanks !
