I didn't win the Ebay auction, so I'm still looking for a 2 weight, 7'6" to
8', medium action, and oh by the way, not horribly expensive (sorry, not up
to T&T status yet). I'll be fishing for goldens in California next month
and figure it would also be a nice rod for the brookies in the SNP. Were
talking 4-10" fish.
Also, line.... What is the best line (in your august and humble opinions)
for light line fishing. I know what works on my 4wt, and this is different
than what works on my 8wt. Is there an appreciable difference when using
very light tackle?
I don't have a lot of time to run all over the DC-Baltimore area trying
different rods. I would like to narrow down my search first, by using the
phone, so I can go and try out some of the recommended selections. This
will help me cross off stores that sell "non-recommended" equipment.
Thanks in advance for your brain power.

See if you can eBay an Orvis 7'9" 2 wt. or the 7'6" 1 wt. (it casts a
2 wt. just fine). Both are wonderful small stream rods.
