I want to get a new rod and reel. I have a St. Croix imperial 9' 6wt with a lamson guru reel. The rod does well, but it is too stiff for me and it paired with the reel does not let the drag work well even on medium sized trout. Looking for a quality rod around the 200$ to 250$ range. Not sure what weight I need, it will be almost exclusively for trout. Looking for a good flex with the capability of handling large trout also. I mainly fish nymphs with an indicator but occasionally use a dry or a streamer. It will be used on smaller streams so I was thinking of a 8'6 length. Any suggestions on a rod and reel to match would be greatly appreciated.
