This probably has been discussed before but I'll start a new thread. I know a number of manufacturers are bringing out new lines and others are dropping old lines.
I'm looking for a small stream rod in the 6'6" to 7' range. Preferably 5 wt which casts nicely with short amount of line out. The rod should be under $200 or so since I figure it will get beat up. A three or four piece would be nice since I plan on backpacking into some areas. I have one 7'6" 4 piece St Croix 4 wt but it's too stiff to cast short lines. Any suggestions or thoughts?
