I'm having a hard time deciding what to get. I fish both Salmon and Trout
but I can only afford one rod. Seems the 8wt is too heavy for Trout and a
5-6 wt is too light for Salmon. Not fun!

Thanks!

Hi, I have a couple of rods that I would sale for about $50. You are
going to have a problem tho. A trout rod is going to be about a 4/5
weight. A king salmon rod is going to be about a 9/10 weight. I have a
7/8 rod that I have used for both trout and kings, and it is kind of big
for trout and kind of small for Kings. I have had salmon break both 8
weight and 9 weight rods.

I think a TFO (brand new) would be you best bet. Bill can probably sell
you a 8 or 9 weight for about $90.
