Lighter rods can't roll cast worth beans, and heavier rods are too much for small trout.


Depends more on where than what you're doing IMO. I fish very few larger rivers (except the Potomac a couple times a year) and the Orvis Helios 4 weight 9 foot is my go to rod for virtually all my trout fishing. I'd stick with what you have.


If something on the internet makes you angry the odds are you're being manipulated
