I just picked up a Scott SVS904 two piece rod. Intended use is fishing
panfish, trout and light smallmouth duty. snippage

.......I don't have any experience to offer on the rod Joe, but is there any
such thing as "light duty" when it comes to the redeyed rocket? :-))

Frank you are quite correct. I love bronze (spending much of my free time
volunteering for TOSA at this time). I guess my "light duty" comment is
more in regards to that precious period of the season when these scrappers
focus on caddis and mayflies. Its fun to cast size 12 soft hackles on the
Great Miami tribs to 14 - 18" fish that are flashing non-stop.

I have to admit tho, that a time or two I had the audacity to use a 4 wt on
smallmouth, but always felt a little uncomfortable, sort of like the danged
fish *deserved* a bigger rod, and what if a really big one came along and
handed it back to me minus the tip section?
