Buddy,
Thoughtful reply, thank you. Being pretty new to the fly fishing game, the rod/line question is something I know little about. Having read the opinions on the subject, it seems that some feel it is wise and others definitely do not. I personally could care less for convention, so if it works I'm all for it. My 6 wt. pflueger is the first rod I ever owned, and I have not been kind to it. I fished it constantly my first couple seasons, dragged it through the mud, and it lived in the back of the minivan. The ferrules are starting to split, and the middle section goes flying off from time to time. I know, use that wax! I learned my lesson. Luckily it was on an inexpensive rod. There, I now have justified getting a new rod. I have looked at the Sage Launch, and have read that is one model that smallmouth fishers like. I have never had the opportunity to cast any of these faster rods, so I am going on recommendations for now.
Chris thanks for that. I will do some research on that model.
