Subject: The Ultimate Rod Assortment


Here's a question - what would your perfect rod assortment be for the
fishing that you do? My friends who golf obsess over club selection and
which ones they should carry. I am thinking about picking up another rod and
as a pretext, listed what I thought the rods
would be that would ideally cover typical WA state flyfishing - without
making life too complex. (by the way this is the perfect question to ask
with Christmas just around the corner!)

Small Streams:  7 1/2' for a 2

Trout - Yakima and lakes:

9' for a 3  (dry)
9' for 4    (nymph)

Beach: winter coho and SRC

9' for a 4 (same rod as above)

Beach: summer coho

9'6" for a 6

Summer Steelhead and boat coho fishing:

9'6" for a 7

Winter Steelhead, Chums, Rockfish, Kings

9' for a 8 or 9

(and perhaps some backup rods.)

Any thoughts...?
