Seal Billy-
For fishing narrow water- stuff you can almost jump across I think a longer stick works best . I'm a fan of slower/medium action rods as well. If you're looking at Orvis you might try out their Superfine Fiberglass rod pretty sweet imho . Something to keep in mind w/ Orvis their rod rating is a little different from other rod companies- they base the listed line weight on a weight forward line- so an Orvis 6wt would be somebody elses 5wt ,etc . I was at a flyfishing show a few weeks back and tried out a redington Classic Trout 8'6" 3 wt very nice rod for the money- just thought I'd pass that along . MJ
