I currently own a 5wt. Orvis TLS/Battenkill MidArbor combo and found it to
be a little heavy during a recent trip to fish the smaller rivers around
Estes Park. I think that a 3 wt. will complement the 5wt. for low wind conditions
on smaller (but not tiny) streams/rivers. I was thinking of something in
the 7' - 8' range.

Looking for opinions on the wt./length choice. The Sage 3wt. TLX 7'10" cast
and felt really good to me, so I am also looking for opinions on reels to
pair it with.

Thanks,
Jim

my favorite 3wt is, like forty's, a winston, but in 7' length.
small streams where i fish, in the appalachians, are usually very much
like fishing in a small tunnel.
