do any of you folks have this rod? if so, how do you like it? I'm looking into getting a 9' 5 or 6wt (most likely a 6) graphite rod primarily for trout nymphing that also excels at throwing dries. I currently only fish glass (my Steffen 8' 5/6wt is my goto for all dries) and sometimes bamboo for trout. I'm just looking for a little extra length (who isn't) for nymphing. I do have a 9' 6wt but it is much too fast for the application. It's great for launching flies into the surf or Puget Sound beaches, but not at all what I want for trout nymphing.

from what I understand, the CT is more of a medium action stick which also really appeals to me as I don't really care for the super fast action rods unless I'm fishing salt.

thanks,
Randy

oh, I should also mention that I'm looking in that price range ($130ish) max since this won't be my primary fishing rod (only for a couple of the rivers I fish regularly)
