Hi, I'm thinking of buying a 6'6'' rod. Has anyone tried the
Diamondback Americana or the Cortland CL? Any other recommendations?
I'll be using the rod in tight small stream situations. Probably just
20'-30' upstream presentations but some flexibility would be good too.

Having been given a gift certificate to LL Bean, I decided to try something
I probably would not buy if I were setting out to spend my own cash, so I
bought this -

- the 6'6" 3wt. I've found it to be great for the small streams around here.
With a little practice it casts nicely and I'm having a ball with it.
