i use a 2wt here in Singapore... its not the rod i pull out on a day to day basis but when i feel like working a little harder on the casting and having a little more fun when i DO hook something, i grab it, or when i'm fishing some of our smaller water here... the peacock bass dont get so big and are a real blast... think... 3lb bass 2wt orvis superfine... that's fun... however its a huge pain when you want to cast bigger flies size 6,8, or something that's weighted... i do push the rod out of its elemet sometimes but it still performs and gets the job done.
