For most fishing, salt or fresh, the weight/size of a rod is determined by
the size fly you are going to cast, and whether there is likely to be a lot
of wind or not. The size of the fish is often a secondary consideration.
Probably the most recommended size is an eight weight whether it is for
bass, steelhead or bonefish. However when you are fishing for steelhead,
you often need to mend the line. Therefore, the rod manufacturers often
make their salmon /steelhead rods in longer lengths, often 10'.

I am looking for a rod to fish the feather river for salmon and
steelhead. What are the best rods out their? Is the adg titan the best
rod out their? How does a orvis t3 compare? What about sage?
What about warranty? How much will the rod cost to fix if a fish breaks
it? What if I break it on a car door?
