Hello!
A Steffen or McFarland glass blank would be a blast in a light line weight, but more money than you're looking to spend. So would a McFarland Vintage series graphite.

I have a St. Croix Avid 7'9" 3wt 4pc rod I picked up on a bargain, and it is a really nice graphite true 3wt that is great fishing fun! I would imagine the 7'6" 2wt Avid (SCIII blank) would be a great little 2wt. I know the blank retails for $130, but if you shop around you may find a bargain for $90 - $100 on this blank.

Anyway, just another thought to ponder.

Tom
