I have great plesurre to fish with some new tech  and basic  equipment I got several years ago.
 
 Trout:
Small streams Thomas & Thomas   light Present 8' #3 powered with light Ross Colorado #0 
                     Plusher Medallist 7' #4 with SA system 2
 
Rivers             Thomas & Thomas light Present #5 with Abel TR-1 " Joy to cast this rod big small fly's"
                      Shakespeare Wonderod Glass 8' ( I was showing my 9 year old son how to send a streamer in the narrow channel on the Oklahoma's rainbow trout river and we hooked nice 22" rainbow on this rod , he had fun with big rainbow!
 
Steelhead       Just basic Cortland GRF XP 1000 9' #8/9 powered by White River large arbor ( Copy of Bouer reels)
This rod is nothing special but so far since October it helped me land 5 nice Steelhed.
 
My wish will be to get Winston rod in #1-2 for very small trout in local streams.
 
Best wishes for all Anglers!

Re:  Ultimate Rod Assortment
I wouldn't be without my "long sticks"!

St. Croix 14'  9 wt. (casts like a 10 wt.)
Thomas & Thomas 15'  9 wt.  (sweet)
Sage 13 1/2'  7 wt.  (a "kick" with the dry line)
I use a Teton 12 and Abel 3 for the "long sticks"

One handers:
Lamiglass  9' 4 wt.  Custom built from blank  (Montana on calm days/small dries)
Sage 590 SP  (Montana large fly and wind rod)
Rock Creek Special, a  8 1/2' 5 wt. 4 piece made at the Mercantile. (guide boat rod)
Sage 690 DS 6-7wt. graphite an old friend that is also a "guide boat rod"
Thomas and Thomas 10'  8 wt.  (Steelhead from beaches, and bones)
Sage RPLXI 890  (bones)
Sage RPLXI 1090 (trevally)

I have 3 Teton 5's and a Teton 7, along with the Abel for the one handers.

And what do I whisper in Santa's ear?
Psssst . . . Sage XP, 10'  7 wt.
                 Sage RPLXI 12 wt.  (yes, I have some grandiose plans)
